Ive been trying to create a rom for personal like ive done before with froyo roms
but when we switched to gingerbread it seems like were now using updater-scripts instead of update-scripts and i keep getting error Status 6 on cwm when i try to install and ive narrowed it down to being the updater script
here is my updater script if anyone could help me see what is wrong

something probably corrupted the encoding on your updater.script (like a Microsoft product editor or something). Change the encoding back to unix and see if that doesn't fix it.

In CMW go to "Advanced" panel and then select "Log"

Here you can see where you went wrong and it will specify even the line number so you can easily edit these mistakes.
I recommend Notepad++ for editing these scripts.
