Newly Rooted, cant enter Clockwork Recovery.

[rayishu]

I just rooted my thunderbolt using the mac procedure on this site. Everything went well from what I can tell. I got superuser working and tested root privileges by using the Shoot Me app.

I want to backup my current rom so I downloaded Rom Manager and flashed the Clockwork Recovery. But when I try to enter recovery, im taken into fastboot where it tries to load up the PG05IMG.zip file (that I have removed from the sd card after rooting) then it takes me back to the Bootloader where I try to enter recovery from but then it repeats the loop.

What have I done wrong?

Delete the pg05img.zip from your sd card

I have flashed the Clockwork Mod, it says it has been installed.

I have deleted the pg05img.zip file.

Ive installed the oldest version of recovery available just to check and it still happens

It first goes to Fastboot, and I go into Bootloader, then it looks for pg05img but doesnt find it, I select "Recovery" and then im taken back to the inital Fastboot screen.

Also Backing up my rom in Rom Manager does not work either.

So when you press power to enter recovery mode, the phone restarts to the bootloader screen with skateboard androids?

Lets see. Do you have s off? It will say at the bootloader screen.
I would try to clear data for rom manager, uninstall, dl again from the market, and flash latest recovery. Make sure your sd card is formatted for fat 32.

It says "S-On" on bootloader screen.

Not rooted correctly ,I would start the root process over from scratch
