I heard on the boards Beta 3 is out, but actually RC1 is out !!!

So I am on Frodo Beta 2 right now in XBMCBuntu dual booted with Windows 8.
1) Should I just install over or can i use command line to upgrade, and if so how. I would prefer latter since I don't want to mess up my dual boot by accident
2) I have a Dell with NVidia Motherboard, but AMD CPU and ATI video card. So I'm thinking I get the AMD iso. Can anyone confirm?

Thanks in advacne.
Command line upgrade

Code:
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties pkg-config
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wsnipex/xbmc-xvba
apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc

This is on the wiki (I know because I put it there) http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=XBM..._XBMCbuntu

Using ppa:wsnipex/xbmc-xvba because it has all the ATI stuff.

Much Obliged. Just one more question. Should I be logging into XBMCBuntu instead of XBMC, then type in those commands in XTerm? On another thread where someone helped me with sound issues, he mentioned Ctrl F1-F6 enabling me to exit to "Shell". However that's not working for me, maybe I'm getting key sequence wrong. No matter, just asking if being in XBMCBuntu + XTerm will work.
Its CTRL + ALT + F1 --> F6 and CTRL + ALT + F7 to get back to XBMC.

I just posted that on your other thread.
