Important to note: Rooting and installing a custom recovery are two different things, and there are FRG01B users who are rooted but do not have a custom recovery installed. Those users *can* load this update, but it will screw up root and it currently appears that if you want root back again you'll need to flash an SBF.
If you have a custom recovery, it will block the loading of this update (and other future OTAs).
WTH am I doing wrong? I can't get this to work.
I forced the FRG01B a couple weeks ago. Everything went smoothly.
I downloaded this new file. Renamed to update.zip. I then go in recovery mode and go to sdcard:update.zip, the phone aborts the installation.
It says E: failed to open /sdcard/update.zip (No such file or directory)
Do I need to delete the original update or change the name of that file? I'm a bit of a noob obviously.
??
Thanks for any help!

Swype reinstalled just fine after the new update. No issues for me, but will test my droid out and if I find anything out will post later.
Good point -- but it's not the recovery they flash on that you have to worry about -- it's the bootloader. We can replace the recovery at will on the Droid as long as the bootloader cooperates. This update does also install an updated bootloader but I've not had a chance to take a look at it yet to see if it is 2C.7C again or a new one.
Actually it is my understanding that they have.
I'm going to run it "as is" onto my DEV phone and see what bootloader we get. The recovery doesn't worry me. Will report back shortly.
