Flashing CM9 on Xoom keeps failing

I've already flashed a custom recovery image of ClockworkMod Recovery 5.8.3.1 and have rebooted into recovery, which works fine.
I have Downloaded the latest version of CyanogenMod and gapps-ics and placed on the root of the sd card in my xoom. I have also tried this by placing this in the root on the internal storage but I am having the same issue here.
I can wipe data/factory reset fine, as well as wipe cache no issues, but then when I go into install zip from SD card, then choose zip from sd card I get the line E:Can't mount /sd/card/ so can't install the zips cm-9.0.0-rc1-wingray or gapps-ics
Any thoughts on what might be the issue here, and why I cant get to the zips. As I said I have tried this both ways, having the zips on the internal storage and on the actual SD card.
HELP! So so fed up with v3.2 I need CM9 on this!
I don't know if the message is caused by the launcher. I would disable the signature check and try again.

I had the same problem, did a few google searches which indicated there was a problem with that version of ClockworkModRecovery, i ended up reflashing with ClockworkMod 3.2.0.0 (R4c) and all was fine after that.
Hope that helps,

Thanks will give that a go and post back later for if it helps others.

Hello, i recently returned to stock. Afterwards I re-installed CM9, now my SD card won't mount in anything, when i try to mount it in CM9 it just immediatly says SD card safe to remove. any help/suggestions would be appreciated.
Also I have tried the method in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630459 but it did not help.

I recently had a problem with the sdcard not being mountable too. Mine was corrupted so I had to reformat it.
In was using twrp recovery but it is probably the same with Cwm. Try to mount the sdcard from recovery with your pc. The pc might say it needs to be reformatted before use. If so, you just format it to fat32.
Hope it is this simple for you too.
No, the card will not mount in recovery.
Would returning my phone to stock help me in this matter at all?

It is a common problem.
OK i ran through the process in the post again, for some reason it seems to have worked ths time around. Thanks for the help!

Bricked phone, can't Odin or flash with CWM

My phone won't boot. I tried putting my Nandroid backup on the external SD card to restore, but I can't restore it with CWM. Whenever I hit restore, it says no files found. I've tried mounting/remounting the external SD option in Mounts and Storage. Whenever I mount them through this option,, they don't show up on my PC, so I can put the files on the internal SD. It does, however, show up in Device Manager with a yellow exclamation point. Odin does not recognize the phone.
Can you get adb to recognize it? If you can then you should be able to "reboot download". Hopefully that will "soft"get you into Odin/download mode. If that doesn't work you can make or buy a USB jig that will boot you into download.

I get a device not found error. Why am I unable to flash anything from an external SD card through CWM? Shouldn't this be a standard option?
Ouch. That sucks. Did you try mounting it in advanced menu? You might want to head over to the irc channel. There are a few of us in there. We may be able to help you out.

Sorry I had to bail a little early last night. Did you get the issue figured out. If so could you please post what you did to recover your phone?
Thanks

TWRP 2.3.3 issue

So for some reason 2.3.3 isn't showing the correct files when trying to flash, most folders are empty and everything was unorganized, went to CWM and everything worked fine.
Every time I try to flash 2.3.1 again it won't let me. Is there any other app like goo manager to flash twrp or a way to fix 2.3.3?

What do you mean most folders are empty/unorganized? Which rom are you on and do you have a /sdcard/0 directory? When you say CWM worked fine, in what way did it work fine?
Beans build 9, it's not 4.2 but I do have 0 folders from previous 4.2 flashes. In a root folder I have all my files there and everything is there, in cwm everything is the same. In TWRP some folders are missing, the download folder for example is empty, and they arentbin the order they're supposed to be.

So your filesystem looks like this /sdcard/0/? If so, just move all the folders from /sdcard/0 to the /sdcard path. Basically, if you have this /0 directory with all your data saved to it, this causes havoc when you switch roms or want to restore backups.
I'm not understanding your flashing issue with TWRP. Did you place a rom on /sdcard, boot right into TWRP 2.3.3, and it just wouldn't see that rom zip or is it something else? Or did you put the rom zip on /sdcard/0?
It's actually the opposite, the /0 is showing and not the root of the SD card.

Could you screenshot what you're seeing? If you see /0, you can just go up one level and be on /sdcard.
I actually got it fixed but thanks for trying to help, the problem was that it was only showing the /0 folder and not the actual root so the root finally showed after flashing a 4.2.
The first thing on SD card was that 0 folder, weird problem.
