Which files need to be updated to make the upgrade to 2.4?

The only local file which might be involved in your backup is .xinitrc. But the change is only for non-US keyboards.

I have a flash drive frugal install of v2.3, and wondered what the easiest way is, to upgrade it to 2.4? Can I just use the "install to pen drive" entry in the menu and choose the 'upgrade' and 'from Web' options, or is there a 'better' way?

Many thanks - great job as always
