Not to be stupid by why wouldnt you flash the emmc? Would it not update core hardware programming?
eMMC flashing has nothing to do with the hardware or the software on the device - that image flashes the storage area of the internal memory - i.e. it will delete everything that's under /home/user/MyDocs (including backups, so if you plan on flashing it make sure you copy the backups directory on your computer first). In theory, there really is no reason to do that.
people, is it save to use "apt-get dist-upgrade" with this one?
I wanted to do the same by using the instructions shown in Move apt cache outside of rootfs to download and update firmware to 3.2010.02-8.203.2.

Create a download folder on the eMMC to be used for the downloaded packages instead of the default apt archive folder.
How much "free space in rootfs" is required before you start upgrading to PR 1.2..?
Most people seem to be ok with 57.7 or more, although i cant speak from experiance as im still waiting on the OTA to roll out for the global fw variant
