So if anyone knows how to work with clockwork mod i think this could help with the recovery no?

Porting Clockwork Recovery to tablets

I can't think of a better thread name but this post will let me know that your tablet doesn't have custom recovery and will let me create a recovery for your tablet. Most of the time getting a recovery up and running doesn't take too long, some tablets do but we can discuss that another time.

MUST HAVE ROOTED TABLET.


List your tablets brand and model
List your android version and kernel (about system shows both)
Let me know what buttons are available on the tablet(volume, camera, etc)

Either in ADB or in Terminal (Note that the actual outputs are examples of what the command will output :P)
1. Type cat /proc/mtd and the following will appear, not exactly the same of course. Keep the output of this saved for later.
Code:

cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00500000 00020000 "boot"
mtd1: 0a000000 00020000 "system"
mtd2: 00500000 00020000 "recovery"
mtd3: 00060000 00020000 "splash"
mtd4: 06000000 00020000 "cache"
mtd5: 0af00000 00020000 "userdata"
mtd6: 00500000 00020000 "logo"


2. Then based on whatever mtd# recovery and boot is, do the following replace the number in the mtd# with the output of the command above.
Code:

dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd2 of=/sdcard/recovery.img bs=4096
dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd0 of=/sdcard/boot.img bs=4096


3. Now that your done with that, run mount and keep that command saved.
Code:

rootfs / rootfs rw 0 0
tmpfs /dev tmpfs rw,mode=755 0 0
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,mode=600 0 0
proc /proc proc rw 0 0
sysfs /sys sysfs rw 0 0
tmpfs /sqlite_stmt_journals tmpfs rw,size=4096k 0 0
/dev/block/mtdblock1 /system yaffs2 rw 0 0
/dev/block/mtdblock5 /data yaffs2 rw 0 0
/dev/block/mtdblock4 /cache yaffs2 rw 0 0
/dev/block//vold/179:17 /sdcard vfat rw,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,uid=1000,gid
=1015,fmask=0702,dmask=0702,allow_utime=0020,codep age=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,
shortname=mixed,utf8,flush 0 0
/dev/block//vold/179:1 /sdcard2 vfat rw,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,uid=1000,gid
=1015,fmask=0702,dmask=0702,allow_utime=0020,codep age=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,
