Root Rooted 2.1 about to upgrade to 2.2 and root

So I rooted my phone and left well enough alone at 2.1, I rooted via universal androot. Clockwork recovery works, had the bootstrap loader.

Ok trying to update to 2.2, and then root, my issue is I get that cool exclamation point and nifty little droid guy, it will not update, when I got the phone into the stock recovery mode it says E: failed to verify whole file signature E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.

Am I not going to be going to 2.2? 2.2 and me seem to have a battle that 2.2 thinks it will win, my first dx bricked itself just updating OTA.

What would be causing my issue? I am going to guess that I happen to have some strange event going on.

Ohh I did a factory reset still clockwork recovery comes up, is that supposed to do that?
 
I hope you made a nandroid backup. If you didnt then find the droid x sbf
for 2.1, look for phoxus_gift or motobomb. Also, if you rooted and removed any bloat apps the update will not go through
