It's not a good idea to copy the template to the rwd folder, since this is a default Magento folder. You need to override the rwd theme for that. The best way to do that is to use a theme.xml, where you can define a parent. The file should be located in app/design/frontend/[package]/[theme]/etc/theme.xml with the following code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<theme>
    <parent>rwd/default</parent>
</theme>

This makes your theme use rwd/default as it's parent.
