Next time you'll backup your database first, eh?;)
As said previously, it's probably not a great idea to modify core themes.
But anyway, I just tested your scenario and can't reproduce it.
Here's what I did: copied the Garland theme to sites/all/themes/test moved garland.info to test.info replaced all instances of the word "garland" with "test" in theme-settings.php, template.php and test.info
Importantly (I think) I commented out the line "package = Core" in test.info. ;D
Thanks for trying. That's what I did in the first instance, it worked briefly then failed, Did not change anything. Strangely I could reproduce the failure each time using the same database. New database and the problem went away until I changed the colours, then same failure occurred. Fortunately it's a dev database so it doesn't matter if basic "stufff" gets lost. I've installed another theme that seems to be very good for the purpose. thank you Roger
I subsequently find that the fault seems to not be in a single Drupal 7 install where Garland is copied and renamed to /sites/all/themes/newname and the files changed as above.
It seems to be a multi sites problem. Experimentation indicates that in the multi site set up I can set another site to read the theme but it's dead in the original theme. Roger
