I will make a long story short! I switched from Clockwork to Ra in Rom Manager. Tried to flash a new kernel. Didn't work, so I went to recovery to nandroid back and Welllllll, I do not have any recovery images in Ra!!! WTF?? How can I get back to clockwork so I can recover???
 
Fixed!!
Scary lesson learned! I now have recovery images on both CM and RA. Rom Manager is great, but it made me lazy and I did not even think about something going wrong while in RA recovery!

Or you cold have just re-flashed your Rom image that you were using over what you installed and it would have put back the original kernel that came with the Rom and would not have deleted any of your stuff as long as you didn't wipe system.

This happened at about 10:30pm last night. I don't think you realize how many different roms I tried flashing with no success! This was after I realized my dilemma, no recovery images in RA!
Flash flash flash flash flash .............White Evo 4g screen is burned into my retinas!!! Finally I got a older version of fresh to flash. I was so f'ing happy to see that dancing droid at 5:00am!
