If you want to update your B2 you should do a complete reinstall:

Please carefully read the past about reinstalling your B2 in twe WIKI. It states:

What if I don't want to delete all my user data?

Relax. There is an option that can be set of - not formatting the hard drive and keeping your user data while still re-installing your system

Follow steps 1 and 2 above. Then edit the file bubba.cfg with a text editor. (Note: Do NOT use windows notepad, it messes up the file, if on windows use for example ConText).

Change the lines

"FORMAT = 1"

and

"PARTITION = 1"

to

"FORMAT = 0"

and

"PARTITION = 0"


..and save the file. Then continue at step 3 above. The system will now re-install the system partition (hence all your settings etc. will be removed, but all user data (everything under /home) is not touched.
