Did you copy the files into the update directory or did you follow the instructions and copy all of these files. I noticed that if I copy the files to the update directory on the next restart it doesn't copy them correctly.
If you're already on a recent Gotham build, to upgrade to a new development build you only need to drop the new .tar file into the Update fofder and reboot.
You will of course need to copy the four update files (KERNEL+SYSTEM+MD5x2) into the Update folder the first time you transition from an old Frodo install to Gotham, but from that point onwards just drop the .tar in to the Update folder and OpenELEC Gotham will take care of the rest.
Should the upgrade go awry (though it really shouldn't) then recovering the situation by using a PC to manually transfer the files extracted from the tar is definitely worth a shot, and should work.
