Note: Regular update is broken on 4.0, if you want to update directly you need to go to:
1.- Updates and Downloads and set update type to Stable

Otherwise you can download the .tar corresponding to your device and copy it to:

FULLY read (and understand) the release notes and don’t forget to use Reset EmuELEC scripts and binaries to default

This version includes a big change on how binaries and scripts are stored, basically to deal with the issue of people not reading how to properly update and since I am getting tired of answering the same question over and over again, lets just move all binaries and scripts to RO /usr/bin, this will force update all of these and make updating much simpler.
If you use custom scripts /emuelec/bin and /emuelec/lib are still in the path so you will have to deal with it accordingly.
