As described in the title.
I upgraded from Evox -> XBMC 1.1.0, and have been happy since. But I didn't think about what to do when upgrading to a more recent version of XBMC. Does anyone have any tips? <

I keep Avalauch installed even though I am using XBMC as my default dash. When I want to upgrade XBMC, I launch avalauch, reneame the XBMC directory to XBMC_old then copy over the latest one.
If the new build is messed up, I just start avalauch again and delete the new build and rename xbmc_old to xbmc (or whatever your original directory was). <
