How to hack the $250 Nook Color into a full Android tablet

Last night I popped the SD card and tried to download again - nothing. The manual download loads the file to the SD card, which appears to be the wrong place for the Nook to recognize it for install. I unzipped the file on the SD card and still nothing.

I'm going to stop now before it stops working completely. You know, because it is no longer under warranty. :o)

I put Android on a Micro SD card for my Nook Color (running 1.2), but can't figure out how to add Android Market. Just doesn't work... Any suggestions, please???!!!

I have version 1.2.0 I can not find out wich neuter version I need to use. Any help would be apprecaited.

I have a nook color, and I have to say I'm very interested in the rooting process. I am considering rooting the nook very soon but have one question that I hope someone can help me with. In the instructions it states to download "Win32DiskImager" When I click the link I see two downloads on the right side. One for "Binary" and one for "Source" Which one of these should I download?

Does anyone know if I can do the following - I would like to unregister my Nook and give it to someone. If I unregister a nootered Nook, can it be registered again? I remember reading something about making sure it was registered before you nooter.

If I have to register it before, are their instructions to de-nooter (setting the Nook back to the 1.1 version). Then I can register and re-nooter.

Thanks

Is this hack a replacement of the original OS on the tablet or, since it's going into the SD card, is it an option, where you can revert to the original OS if you pull the SD card out? That would be, in my opinion, the best of both worlds.

I've had a Nook Color for about 8 months now, using it only as an ereader, but I am ready to take it to the the next level.

Thanks,

Why is Sep 1 the last post? Has this been eliminated? Really is any info available for hacking the new Nook Color 2? I really like this site, hope it continues, I plan to buy the new Nook if info is available...

I didn't want to deal with all this so I just bought a card. My friend referred me to these guys and I haven't been sorry yet. http://www.amazon.com/b/qid=1339624874?ie=UTF8&me=A3V6E6JTPOK9Y1

Please pardon my ignorance, I would really like to "hack" my Nook to and Android OS but I do not want to mess this up, so I am looking for some more details/help. Everything I have read thus far only talks about the 1.01, can I still follow these instructions? Which "Win32DiskImager" do I use, source or binary? I have purchased a 32gGB micro card, will this work? I think that's it....for now....I hope!
