If it is using mtp than Ubuntu's version should work.  It might be called
simple-mtpfs, not sure what they're using. 

(My Nook Color is older.  I plug it into a machine and it's just seen as an
external USB drive.  I run dwm or openbox, so there is no Gnome
automounting--whether or not that makes any difference, I have no idea.)

For my android (you'll see long threads on both the forums and this list),
which uses mtp, I got mtpfs working on one CentOS machine, but not others,
and not on a FreeBSD machine.  Eventually, I just used the remote
capability of ES file explorer, which let me put an a mini FTP server on
the phone.  I don't know if the newer Nooks have something similar
avaiable, but it might be the easiest way to do it.
