it seems that the recovery is getting to big - flashing fails
you should flash recovery.img, not inputrecovery.img.

Just extract the archive and rename one of the recovery_xxxx.img files to recovery.img and run install_recovery

My little guide to get cwm 6 on our phone without a computer

1. Download bladyle's cwm zip here: http://minus.com/llBzrGFd15YuQ

2. Extract "recovery_6001.img" then rename the extracted .img "recovery.img"

3. Download recovery manager: http://www.modaco.co...?/topic/329772-[APP]-Recovery-Manager-v0.36-[BETA]  (copy the whole link, not just the blue link) then install the apk on your phone

4. Open the app then click on the recovery tab

5. Click on "install recovery" and select the recovery.img that you extracted

6. Click on reboot recovery then enjoy :D

what error you see?
i see in forum that there is GEN1, GEN2 or GEN3 phones...for now i don't know what is the difference from this or how to view witch version is your device but maybe they using different size partitions and that is why you can't flash it ..

try different method to be sure too

sending 'recovery' (5068 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: flash write failure)

the other recoverys are smaller
how do I check the partitions of the flash memory? (I hate those situations, nothing documented :( )

Edit: thx Mtman1 but this will not work, if the sizes don't fit ^_^ beside that fastboot is really generic
