Rooted Nook doesn't see books on SD Card

gracie · 12-01-2011, 11:58 PM

I rooted my Nook Color with a 16GB card running CM7.

While in android, I connected the NC to the PC and used Calibre on the PC to send books to the SD card (13.3GB), which Calibre thinks is main memory (I"m using Calibre 08.28, but it STILL has the Nook memory and SD card reversed, so in Calibre I sent the books to main memory).

In Android I verified the books are in the My Files/Books/<author>/books folder tree in the 13GB partition. I also verified there are no books in the Nook's memory. I can use Aldiko or cool reader, see the books, read the books, everything's fine.

BUT, when I boot back into a standard Nook Color and go into the library I can see both main memory and a "Memory Card". BUT, on the "Memory Card" I don't have any books. I connected the Nook to the PC, and in Disk Management I can see the "boot" partition on the SD card, which is about 118MB instead of 13GB. So, it appears I'm seeing two different partitions on the SD card.

Is it possible to have the Nook see the same partition - the 13GB one, ALL THE TIME? If so, what do I need to do to get this to work?

I don't have a rooted NC, but this question doesn't seem to me to be a question for the calibre forum. You might find an answer in the Nook Color forum.

Good Luck.
