Root Cloclworkmod backup help

I have the congnition froyo and i am trying to make a back up with rom mngr. and clkwrkmd. but I keep getting this error on boot."E: failed to verify whol-file signature"
"E: signature verification failed


I would just like to make a back up rom.

Anyone have any ideas

Thanks,
 
I could be wrong but at this point I dont believe clockwork works with 2.2. head over to the xda forum there is a bunch of stuff about this.

Nope....not yet. Koush may not update ROM Manager until Froyo is near release for the Captivate....right now it's just a leak, which means things can change...
 
Read the Cognition FAQ's man. Clockwork won't work on the leaked version of 2.2 (JI6) or on Cog 2.2 because it is 3e and Clockwork only works on 2e.

/\I doubt it will change unless they change the verification back to 2e, which is unlikely for them to make it easier on us to root and such.
 
The issue is the same as any of mods or updates that require the use of an update.zip; froyo looks for a signed zip file during the "reinstall packages" part, and for now, those do not exist. So untill Clockworkmod is able to sign the update.zip used to replace the recovery menu, it will not work.
 
Hey everyone thanks for the info. I am a noob at this stuff so I don't know what the dif is between 2e and 3e etc.

I just wanted to make sure I was not using it wrong, or missed something.

So any alternatives to backing up ROMs that does work on 2.2?

Thanks,
