  • I moved the jacket.xhtml file to the back of the book (as I always do)
  • I removed the following line from the jacket.xhtml
    Code:
    <meta name="calibre-content" content="jacket"/>
  • I renamed it to jacket-01.xhtml, saved the EPUB and exited Sigil
  • I used the Polish tool to create a new jacket
  • I get a new jacket.xhtml file and I didn't lose the jacket-01.xhtml file

This may not work for EPUB3. Moving the jacket files and using Sigil are probably irrelevant - I always move the jacket to the back and I use Sigil more than the calibre editor.
