OK this is all from memory.

There's 2 steps, downloading the update and installing it.

The below steps are all done at the command line, so Putty on a PC would
be my suggestion, if you use an Android Device then I can
enthusiastically recommend JuiceSSH. If you haven't already you'll need
the enable SSH on the Joggler, in SqPOS this is in settings somewhere,
the same place you initially install LMS.

For the download I used the wget command. By default this will download
to the home directory, as previously mentioned I expanded the main Linux
partition after flashing the USB, if you have installed to the internal
memory you may need to CD to another folder, possibly the location your
hard drive has been mounted in.

Go here http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/?ver=7.8

Right click on the Debian installer link and choose copy link location.
At the command line type
wget and paste the address.

So for example the latest one as of now.

wget
http://downloads.slimdevices.com/nightly/7.8/sc/f7a5201/logitechmediaserver_7.8.0~1386246861_all.deb

You could also download on a PC as normal then copy the deb file to a
folder accessible on the joggler but TBH it's so simple doing it this
way.

Once downloading has finished you install using the dpkg command.

So
sudo dpkg -i logitechmediaserver_7.8.0~1386246861_all.deb

Will install the file downloaded above. The file names will change when
a new nightly is produced (so should be nightly I guess)

Once the install is complete I chose to reboot the Joggler, I don't
think its necessary TBH but might as well.
to reboot type
sudo reboot

All going well that should be it. 7.8 installed. The same basic steps
will also install other versions if you find the URL for the DEB file,
so you may choose to update to the latest stable version (7.7) or go
back if it goes tits up.

I hope that's clear, to be fair it wasn't easy typing that lot on a
smartphone.
