Root need help with cusom rom

[mehras1991]

Hi all, I rooted my milestone yet, & I don't have much information about Custom ROMs, I know what custom rom do ( such as installing apps to the sd card)

I did this this How To: Load a Custom ROM on the Motorola Milestone (Using Nandroid) | TheUnlockr to load custom rom, but now I don't know how to install apps to sdcard, & I don't know which custom rom I'm using, can anyone help me to know my custom rom & if I need to do any other process.

I searched a lot but I only found that there are different custom roms.
the custom rom which the website told me to install was European through this page: Motorola Milestone ROMs | TheUnlockr

Flash the correct sbf for your phone, then flash vulnerable recovery, and finally use OpenRecovery to install apps2sd. And don't use the tutorials available at theunlocker.com again as they are outdated.

That could mean its in the wrong dir... I know for me I had to change the dir for the actual restore as I explored where it put the back up once I created the backup before making any changes... but I also put the files in the dir it suggested as well just in case. So I would go exploring to make sure the files are in the right place... not sure if you can still do that or not... good luck
