CWM Installer for Linux Tutorial

Extract the files and you should have a folder called "CWMInstaller-Linux".

You now need to open up a terminal type program. In this tutorial I will be using "LXTerminal". Once it is open you need to go to the directory that you extracted the CWM Installer to and then into the "CWMInstaller-Linux" folder. For me this is /home/user/Working/CWMInstaller-Linux so I would type.

cd /home/user/Working/CWMInstaller-Linux

Once you are in the directory you need to type.

sh cwm-x10minipro.sh

Once that has ran the typical output if everything is correct will be.
