Running rooted stock image. Let the 4.2.2 upgrade happen, but never got the prompt to preserve root (using clockwork).

How can I preserve root through these ota updates?

Thx..

Just re-root.. Takes 5 seconds, flash the SU or SuperSU zip you did to root the first time :)

How? Without root I can't get cw to flash and stock recovery doesn't let me flash a zip.

Fastboot. Boot to bootloader and boot into the custom recovery image using
fastboot boot nameofrecovery.img

Then flash the zip.
