The upgrade files, when updating the player partition, basicially contain an image correct? I never intended to have the upgrade to just install one file. Instead it would contain all the normal files, along with the addon files. This seems to be the easiest way for letting everyone install addon software, and not just Unix experts.
We also need some way of adding new files without overwriting the whole image currently on the player. Otherwise we'll get into the same unmanageable situation we have right now with the kernel hacks - there are too many of them and somebody has to keep building kernel images with any possible subset. This just doesn't scale...
