[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Domiel:
[Edit] OK so of course I figured it out within 30 minutes of posting this, after being stumped for the last day. Here is what i did if you guys are in the same pickle:

1. I downloaded an app call Root recovery tools, booted into the cm 13 recovery

2. Renamed "openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.2-acclaim-sdcard.img" into recovery.img

3. Selected sd recovery in the cm 13 recovery- got loaded into twrp 2.8.5.2

4. Installed CM 13

[/Edit]

I rooted, installed MiUi, and resized my nook tablet partition sizes back in 2012 or 2013. Now I'd like to try another ROM but I can't seem to get anything working. I've tried several different things but always end up in my old version of CWM(v5.5.0.4) and get stuck. I need help. Here is the error log

Specifically I can't figure out out how:

1. To update CWM on my already rooted tablet?

2. To install the CM 13 ROM? It seems I may have to do it in several steps, first installing an older version of CM?

I managed to install a google play app that lets me boot into the CM 13 recovery but I can't really do anything with it.
