Anyone have any idea why this would happen?

It's not so much the recovery that's corrupt, but the /data partition I believe. I had the same thing happened to me a few days ago (couldn't even backup my ROM). Formatted /data and recovery worked again. Try backing up your ROM in CWM and if it reboots before it finishes, you'll have to format /data through recovery. If you do happen to do so, backup all of your files in your internal storage since EVERYTHING in it will be wiped clean.
Current Device - Samsung Galaxy Note II (SGH-T889)
ROM: CarbonRom Nightlies
Recovery: CWM Touch (6.0.2.8)
HTC Vision (G2) - Retired

4ext is sweet I had it on my sensation. . It would be cool to have it on the note 2, choices are always awesome.

I've been using v 6.0.1.5 by Xiaolu with no problems. At least a dozen flashes... Whats the difference, this is CWM-based???

Ill never touch TWRP again, hard bricked my htc amaze the very first flash , and the sad part not many talked about that either, I saw a few others across the web. Im also a big fan of 4ext, Heard about TRWP around that time and their fully functional on screen keyboard, so I gave it a try, and I deeply regret it,

I'm happily running the N7100 v6.0.1.5 CWM and went through several backups and restores during the upgrade to the new ALK8. I backed up EFS separately. All is good so far.
