The WIKI on Cyanogenmod's site for the G1 says that Clockwork Recovery has issues with the G1 due to limited memory. Is this still the case, or is it safe to use Clockwork instead of Amon Ra now?
they are both safe. Amon ra has a better menu but in my case the nandroid in amon ra wont restore my backups. clockwork works fine plus you can use rom manager.
My Preference is Amon RA, I had problem with Clockwork Recovery, nanodroid works well for me. I use Amon RA.
I use clockmodwork 3 (Alpha version by Roalex), because I test roms often and it does not check for the signature of a zip on default. Plus, Clockmodwork recovery 3 is the only recovery available for the HD2, so I use that also because I am most familiar with it.
Clock work works pretty good for me!

Whats up XDA just a quick question: I have the aman ra 1.7.0.1 recovery image on my N1. I was interested in trying out rom manager also which uses clockwork mod, but my question is:
Can I have both on my N1 since they're both recovery programs? Or will there be a problem trying to keep both?
You can use only one.
Flash another and use another
i currently have Amon RA 1.7.0 recovery installed for my g1, and keep hearing a lot about Koushs Clockwork Recovery Mod.
are there any significant benefits in installing it?
It has a few things that are different and lacks a few. The biggest reason you might need it is if you wanted to flash files that don't have the right keys. It does not check for this.
I tried it and found pretty much right away that I missed some features from AmonRa and went back.
So with all the great guides and help from others on here I was able to root and check out a few different roms and was even able to switch back and forth using nand backup and restore. Being new I was sticking with the sprint based roms, certain days I do like sense. I had 3 different ones and using amon RA 1.6.2. could navigate between them. Then I went to a froyo aosp which is superfast and I love, but I somehow switched to clockwork recovery...after moving the nands over so I could see them and then tried to restore and got boot loop errors on all of them. Did I do something wrong? I switched to amon RA 1.7 for recovery to see if that helped and same thing. Is there any way to fix?!? Please, any and all help is greatly appreciated...

Switch back to your original recovery, to restore those nands.
clockwork and amon ra 1.7 use a different a2sd method. If you're not using a cm based rom(or restoring/backing up), you need to run amon ra 1.6.2
have been using ra recovery forever and in a dumb moment loaded clockwork recovery. When I wanted to revert to an older rom I was surprised to see that all the backups and roms are gone and not showing on clockwork. Is there a way to get rid of clockwork and will ra recovery be there with all data or is there a spot where all the backups and roms are in the clockwork program
thanks
Just reflash the recovery you want with fastboot.
So i apologize if this has already been answered but i need an answer real quick. I recently flashed Clockwork mod recovery on my Nexus One and i don't like it. In my opinion Amon_ra's recovery is better in every way so id rather have that on my phone. So my question is can i just flash amon_ra's recovery over clockwork mod and everything will be good or do i need to take extra steps?
Just flash...
just flash... at the moment amon_ra is better, but a mod for clockworkmod enable multiboot in the nexus one (with kernel bug at the moment -.-)... when they will fix the multiboot mod, i'll change definively in clockworkmod
