Each of the updates is a quarterly update release.  You've got the
original, you've then got Update 1 (only the first CD actually changed),
then Update 2 (with all CDs changed).

You can start with any of these, run up2date to apply the updates, and
you'll end up at the same point.  Starting with Update 2 is the most
efficient since some of updates won't need to be downloaded.
