CM7 encore nightly is out CyanogenMod Mirror Network - Powered by TDRevolution. Just saw this this morning. Will flash this once I get home. Not sure if this requires the ext4 install method or can flash through cwm.

Custom ROM that would replace your default B&N version of android

Yes it requires the EXT4 bootable and is cover in my thread for it here: http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...e-bootable-clockwork-sd-card-0-1-cm7-rom.html

Ok. Took a very early lunch break, and completed this using the steps posted (substituting the Nightly build, and I used Win32Image instead) and I have 2.3.2 running on my Nook Color. Thanks CyanogenMod and team!

I have a Mac computer, but do have access to VMware Fusion. Do you think that I could use this method to accomplish the process on a Windows platform on a Mac?
Thanks.
