An improved look and feel for OSMC

This is now the third time that I have had to reinstall release candidate 3. Each time I get an update the osmc crashes on a reboot leaving me looking at a flashing unhappy face. I note that the load text is appearing over the front of the OSMC screen in white text on a black background then goes to the unhappy face. Why do these updates keep crashing the system?

Once I do a reinstall everything works just fine - but the updates should not require me to have to start from scratch each time.
