Updating recovery

I'm trying to update my recovery via terminal emulator.
Code:
su
flash_image recovery recovery.img
I always get error -1
I'm currently on CM10.1 could the new folder tree be causing problems?

Why not just use ez-recovery? It's in the play store

Okay, install supersu from Play store. Simple. Then reboot.

You can install supersu binary using cwm. But update-binary needs to be modified in the zip file to get it working.
Download this and flash from cwm. I have modified the needed changes.

First, dont post again & again. This thing I already suggested you. This is called Spamming.
Now, if you want then download & update latest Busybox from play store.
thanks
