Somehow you got the wrong SBF. You currently have a 2.1 kernel installed on 2.2. You'll need to flash a ROM at this point.
This happens. If you want stock I'll link you to stock rooted. If you want custom, pick it and start installing.

Thanks mammal, I tried to get into install rom from sd card in sprecovery but it seems all the roms on my sd card (and there are many) are inaccesible...what should I do?, do you have a link for me and I could install it via update.zip method and then go from there? Did I install the wrong root file? please help!

No, the root file is valid; the SBF just put a bad kernel in.
Okay, let's try this, then.
http://www.p3designs.info/kernels/125-800-v32kernel.zip
Download that, rename update.zip, place in the root of the SD card, and install in recovery. That's a stock-voltage, stock-speed kernel for FroYo built by P3Droid. See if that stops the problems you're having. We'll move on from there.
OK I just got back from picking up the kids from school, I'm going to try this and I'll let you know....I REALLY appreciate the help, more than you think.

Not a problem. If the kernel won't install the next step is another ROM file (or two, depending), and after that we'll move on to full SBF. So we'll hope this works.![]()
I can't think of any better hands for you to be in than FBM's! Good luck!

I dragged that file to the root of the sd card, chose install/sdcard/update.zip (deprecated) and it keeps saying no such file or directory installation aborted

Did you "allow" the install?
Option right above that?
I did, I should also say that during my rsd lite thing my usb chord may have disonnected momentarily, BUT I still got sprecovery working fine, then installed the root file. I've had this problem before with sprec. which is why I have used mostly rom manager in the past. Not sure how to proceed? I've tried this kernel update.zip about 15 times now and it keeps giving me the installation aborted message.
