Is a Software update the same as instaling an updated image
#1
Hi,  I am sure that this is something odd to ask about but I am curious if updating the software in the updates is the same as installing a newer image.

I have been updating the software when it needs to but I did download and test the multiboot loader.  It had a newer image and it was different.

My current device is pmos that came with the phone that I have updated every time a update is in the store.  On the multiboot version the cheese app had a shortcut and the settings menu was different.

I am interested in why my software that is updated is different than a new image thatt was released.  Do I have to change a file that has the desktop shortcuts and a file to change how the settings menu gets displayed?
I also want to know if I am recieving the same type of updates the newer images are or if I will have to reflash the emmc to get the most recent updates.

Thanks
