If the folder doesnt exist then create it yourself. You want t install MS2G try this one "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604501". no need to put in clockwordmod folder. just download and install from recovery. Hit thanks, if it helps.

Did you format the SD card with ext?
Can you be more specific? What doesn't work?

First of all is your phone rooted? If not then you need to root to flash roms. If it already is then when putting it on your SD card did you keep it in .zip or did you unzip it? Always remember to keep it zipped. After you put it in the base of your SD, turn off your phone then boot into recovery by holding the power and home button. Then go to flash file from SD then choose whatever Rom you chose.
Even though you are on 1.5, flashing to 2.1 shouldn't be a problem
i didnt not ext on my sd card and i was unziping it. well when i put my rom on my root of my sd card went into recovery mode they told me i dont have any roms to flash?

Which recovery version do you have 1.2.3, 1.5.2, or 1.6.2
Always keep it in the zip format and just move it to your sd card.
In recovery console always do a nandroid backup before flashing a ROM and then do a data wipe and dalvik-cache wipe. Then flash from zip.
You do not need to rename to update.zip. Even with 1.2.3, but in early, early releases you had to.Just move to sd card just like it was when you donloaded.

The reason why is because you were unzipping it, next time keep it in .zip because that's the only way you are able to flash it. Make sure the Rom you want to dl isn't in any other folders on your SD.

Trouble flashing rom. Need help FAST

OK so I odined back to stock and then rooted via the one click root application. I had bionix v1.something already on my sd so I downloaded rom manager from the market and tried to flash it.
So I open up rom manager and pick install rom from sd card and choose bionix.
then it takes me to the recovery page and the only options I have is:
reboot
reinstall packages
format data
format cache.
those are the only choices I have! where is the install zip from sd card option? what do I do?
edit: jesus christ I'm an idiot. thanks guys
that is the stock recovery... when you odin, you lose CWM recovery. you need to get an update.zip for CWM or get root access and have rom manager do it for you...
PS theres nothing wrong with your phone.

WAITTTTT
you odin'ed okay.
so go on Rom Manager and flash Clockwork Recovery for Galaxy S Vibrant
then do the steps i said on top.
It's worthwhile to keep a copy of the ROM Manager apk on your SD card so whenever you odin you can install it and flash CWR without having to log into market and download it. Just an idea.

Are you using Clockwork Mod Recovery to flash the new ROM? Are you doing as full wipe of your data, cache, and delvick cache? Also you do not need to reformat your SD card to flash a new ROM, you only need to do that if you are having trouble out of your SD card.
To access Clockwork Mod Recovry from MAGLDR you have to select the AD recovery option from MAGLDR main menu. Once in Clockwork Mod Recovery you have to select install from SD card and then select choose from SD card and then select the ROM you want to flash.

no. if on nativeSD, and the new rom is NativeSD, you can not partition. but if the rom is nand/dataonext it's always better to repartition (to repartition nand not sd-ext)

in order to switch nativeSD rom, open the nativeSD folder on your sd card, there are many folders there, corresponding to which rom you have. open the folder you want (lets say MIUI_v5), copy its contents and paste in nativeSD folder on sdcard, replacing the files inside.
these are the boot files, and each files boot a rom (only if you have installed it )

the 4ext folder should have zImage and initrd.gz inside. if not, then you extracted wrong. open the folder on your sd, it probably has a folder inside that have these files. so move all files to have:
/sdcard/4ext/zImage
/sdcard/4ext/initrd.gz
