The "nandroid.md5" file that accompanies the backup .img files only lists the filenames and MD5 hashes. There are no paths to the image files included in the MD5 file.

So if you just rename the parent folder (not the individual image files) then the restore should still work... no?

This works fine (tested). I would not put spaces in whatever name you rename it to. I would also recommend keeping the name relatively short (there are string limits). But renaming to "Backup1" for example works fine.

When you choose install zip from sd card, CWM will ask whether it is the internal or external sd.

When I choose "Install zip fron sd card" only appear 4 options:
- choose zip from sdcard
- apply /sdcard/update.zip
- toggle signature verification
- toggle script asserts

But no the option you say

No, it doesn't.
I had to move the zip file from the external card to the internal one to be able to find it

If you flashed cwm through rom manager i believe that is a known issue. I am using romracer's and don't have that option missing.

I use this CWM through/with Rom Manger with 0 problems... maybe he forgot to delete "install-recovery.sh" @ /system/etc. ??
