This is crucial if you want to backup the full firmware image of your device for restoring if anything goes wrong. Select Backup and your device should start creating a backup of your device. Go to the Backup and restore option by using the Volume keys to navigate and the N button to select the option. If you don’t see this screen and your device boots normally, reboot the device again. You should see a new Cyanoboot screen and you’ll be taken to CWM Recovery.
Switch off your Nook HD device, put the bootable SD card in the device and switch it on.
