I can't seem to figure out if it's possible to switch back to CWM from drelisdee's amon_ra custom recovery. I assumed it would be as simple as to "flash" recovery from within ROM manager, and it would switch back, but apparently I was wrong since I can't seem to get it to reboot into clockworkmod's recovery interface.
Am I missing something?

Well, I finally got it.
Had to flash the alternate recovery in CWM, uninstall CWM after clearing the app's cache, and then reflash the CWM recovery. Dunno what did it, but one or all of those did it. I just know I have the recovery back that I'm used to, and have backups of my phone saved from.

yeah that was the zip i was talking about lol
