Root New to root..Have an issue w/ 6.0

[suge white]

I am new to the root scene. I followed How to Root the HTC EVO 4G with Froyo 2.2 [Video Walkthrough] | The Droid Demos to root. I can get 2.2 on but I cant get Cyanogen 6.0 on the phone. I gave up late last pm.

I also noticed that when I go into the end process of video Part two I cant get the step after it scans for them pmcimg file/update and then hit no it should take me to bootloader but instead goes right to

FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
CLEAR STORAGE

Any ideas

Thx

Yep, just put the new PC36IMG file on the root of your SD card and delete the old file. After the update, you should be able to flash CM6.

There is a seperate Google Add-on file that you need to flash along with CM6 if you want Google apps.
