wrong. your settings remain intact when upgrading this way.
How so? I thought the settings were in the .rockbox folder in all of the .cfg and .config files. If you "overwrite" the .rockbox directory, you overwrite it at the .rockbox folder level and everything below is lost. If the unzipping software is offering to overwrite the existing folder, but is actually recursively overwriting only the files that have been changed/updated, then it is the equivalent of what I recommended by using "unzip -u archive.zip".
Of course, if the settings are stored outside of the .rockbox directory, then that is different than what I was thinking.
