updating CumulusMX from b3043 to 3048 for linux noob

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Mark only said that for updating from 3047 to 3048.

dazza1223 is incorrect if you are updating from 3043 to 3048, you need to read all Marks posts since 3044 was released on Dec 7th and update all the files mentioned, but since a lot has changed I would suggest a complete file update in your case. Backup your existing file structure then install the complete 3048, then if something is not correct you can revert to 3043.

Cumulus.ini and your /data folder should be all you need.
