Root Updating Dual Boot CM7 / CM9 to nighties

[johngoodin]

I've been a Dual Booter of CM7 - CM9 on a Nook Color. For about a month now.

I registered to ask how you go about installing the nightly builds for CM9 and the later GAPPS updates.

It's my understanding I should put the downloads into the root of the SDCARD and then go the [Triple Boot], [Power] + [Nook Button] route to install from SDCARD.

Or will the Nook see the updates in the root and install them automatically? Sort of the route B&N takes with the Nook Color itself in their v1.41 update.

or if you're already rooted as it sounds you can use ROM manager and tell it back up then install new ROM. Just sit back and let it do it's thing.

My understanding is that Rom Manager can't be used to update roms installed on the sdcard. You MAY be able to download them via RM, but you'd have to move them to the root of the sdcard.

I think roms on the sdcard will be automagically installed when you boot off of it, but we usually recommend wiping data when going from CM7 to CM9.
