For Rom Developers:
It seems that default cwm format is messing up (due to ext4 file system) , Please use (edify) the following script to format the data and cache partition (or System)
Code: 
#Format Data
/sbin/mke2fs_static -t ext4 -b 4096 /dev/block/mmcblk0p30
#Format Cache
/sbin/mke2fs_static -t ext4 -b 4096 /dev/block/mmcblk0p28

# After Format Verify the FIle System
/sbin/e2fsck_static -y /dev/block/mmcblk0p30
/sbin/e2fsck_static -y /dev/block/mmcblk0p28

Edify (To Format System):
Code: 
run_program("/sbin/mke2fs_static", "-t" , "ext4" "/dev/block/mmcblk0p27");
AND 
run_program("/sbin/e2fsck_static", "-y", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p27");

@belth219 could you do a "cat /proc/partitions" on your cell and post its results?

Also providing the results for the above command for nitro HD would also be very usefull.

OK...

I just ran 'cat /dev/zero > /dev/block/mmcblk0p27', remounted my system partition as read/write and copied the recovery.img into the directory. Just rebooted in hopes it will flash the recovery image to the recovery partition p27 above. Will now attempt rebooting into recovery to see if anything happened...

---------- Post added at 09:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:01 AM ----------

Upon using anreboot to boot into recovery I get...

Code: 
Enter the fastboot...
Enter the fastboot...

Long time no see!

And the LG logo beneath it... It also attempted to install a new driver 'android', but couldn't find it on my computer. Very excited that we are moving closer to getting a 'real' recovery mode on the phone...

Now to see if I can reboot normally?

---------- Post added at 09:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:05 AM ----------

And it still boots normally and is fully functional when it does boot!!! Good progress so far. Now, does anyone know how to determine the driver it is looking for? I think if I find the right driver I can get into fastboot mode and do anything else that is necessary?

Why did you ran cat /dev/zero > /dev/block/mmcblk0p27?

as of this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20514396&postcount=32 post your recovery partition should be /dev/block/mmcblk0p27

so To be me steps would have been:
1) Backing up recovery partition using dd
2) Remounting System partiton as read write
3) copying recovery.img to /system and flashing the recovery.img
4) booting into recovery

I agree, but when I miss the part about putting the recovery image in the system directory for it to automatically reflash, I started running the steps to flash the recovery image as people flash the boot image...

An extra step that luckily didn't have any bad consequences...

For fastboot you should have andriod sdk installed , get it at :

I have the sdk installed - but my laptop is asking for a driver - is the driver within the sdk download? If I don't give it the driver then it says the device didn't get installed correctly and fastboot doesn't see it.

Sure did. I have the drivers that are needed when the phone boots up normally? Just when it boots up in this new recovery mode that it is asking for a new driver? It shouldn't be asking for anything new, but it is... Another question - after it loads up the new recovery image from the /system directory should it remove the recovery image? If so, then if the recovery image is still in the system directory we may have a problem?

---------- Post added at 09:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 AM ----------

As I had thought - recovery.img is still in the system directory... Does this indicate a problem?

You should install the LGMobile update which can be downloaded from LG official website.
That is a useful tool.

    delay , as im preparing for my exams :S , i did added some tools and tweaking to the init script , now accessible via adb to backup restore and perform some simple tasks via commad line , system,sdcard,internal storage is now accessible , UI is the only thing left now :s. ill be posting (hopefully) the updated reovery.img and source today

    EDIT:
    Patching the graphics.c , it seems that the swap framebuffer support is not enabled for kernel , so ill give the patched graphics.c a try before uploading the source and scrambled recovery
