Update Procedure
Place new update labeled "update.zip" on a USB drive, with a single partition (ie, 1st partition on a USB disk, so say "/dev/sdc1")
Insert into Revue in the Right most USB port (if looking at the back, closest to the power jack)
Boot into recovery mode: (confirm?)
Hold the Sync button while plugging in the Revue, keep it held, at the same time hold Menu+L on the keyboard.
Box will reboot, continue to hold Sync button, then hold Alt+L (or mash, your choice), and it should then enter recovery mode.
You can then update the box, with a newer update. Downgrading fails however due to a date check.
