Friend of mine just got a moment. They loaded 2.1 at the store when he got it. I followed the steps listed under installing recovery here:

http://forum.sdx-developers.com/andr...-custom-patch/

I installed the CL14 upgrader listed at the top and then patched it to the older version. Instructions are in the link below:

http://forum.sdx-developers.com/android-2-1-development/samsung-updater-patch-revert-to-the-old-one!/

After that, you should be good to go. And I'd recommend using this link:

You can boot into recovery and then apply the .zip file you created to get root access and remove any unnecessary bloatware and even add cool themes. They are constantly upgrading the tool and you will eventually be able to update kernel files. Hope that helps.

Strange. I didn't need to start fresh when installing recovery on my friends moment. It is a pain in the butt but the best way is just to install fresh and reinstall the drivers.
