MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - [Kindle Touch] What does update 5.0.4 change?

So this is INCREMENTAL, not a FULL update? I do not fully understand how update terminology is used here. How is an incremental backup different from a full backup?

Does this require a 5.0.0 image to be installed on the partition before updating it?

Confused...

I see that the KindleTool readme refers to OTA and recovery packages. I did not realize that they were diffierent. I was studying different stuff. Time to look at this closer it would seem. So much to learn and so little time.
