Root Need some help

Hey all,

I upgraded to a leaked version of GB awhile ago, it is build .588. I wanted to go to .595 so I could play with netflix, so I followed the instructions and have downloaded gingerbreak, and ran it. I also downloaded clockwork recovery mod manager, and this is where the problem starts. I cannot reboot into recovery mode. Either with the program or manually. Can someone please give me some clues on what I need to do to fix this?

TIA

2 questions. 1 are you sure your rooted and 2 have you installed D2 bootstrap recovery?
 
It says I have two programs with super user access, so I think so.

I did not install D2 bootstrap recovery. that was not included in my instructions

To be sure I'd download a terminal emulator from the market. Open the emulator up and type SU if the $ changes to a # then you are rooted. If you are rooted then install D2 Bootstrap and boot into CWM recovery and flash .595 (i'd wipe just to ensure no issues)
 
you need to get d2 bootstrapper from koush website, google search droid 2 bootstrapper, and you will see koush website come up, you need to scroll down til you see droid 2 bootstrapper, its free, i paid for droid x bootstrapper, just know you need the bootstrapper to install these files
