 There's almost no difference to join TestNet, but in step 2, you need to use the config and genesis files for TestNet:
 
 ```
-curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iotexproject/iotex-bootstrap/v1.8.4/config_testnet.yaml > $IOTEX_HOME/etc/config.yaml
-curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iotexproject/iotex-bootstrap/v1.8.4/genesis_testnet.yaml > $IOTEX_HOME/etc/genesis.yaml

+curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iotexproject/iotex-bootstrap/v1.9.0-rc1/genesis_testnet.yaml > $IOTEX_HOME/etc/genesis.yaml
 ```
 
 In step 4, you need to use the snapshot for TestNet: https://t.iotex.me/testnet-data-latest and https://t.iotex.me/testnet-data-with-idx-latest. If you need legacy delegate election data(poll.db) for TestNet, you can download it here: https://storage.googleapis.com/blockchain-golden/poll.testnet.tar.gz
 
+In step 5, you need to replace the docker image in the `docker run` command line to `iotex/iotex-core:v1.9.0-rc1`

 加入测试网络基本没有什么不同，只是在第二步，您需要使用以下的源文件：
 ```
-curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iotexproject/iotex-bootstrap/v1.8.4/config_testnet.yaml > $IOTEX_HOME/etc/config.yaml

 ```
 
 在步骤四中，您需要使用针对于测试网络的数据快照:  https://t.iotex.me/testnet-data-latest 和 https://t.iotex.me/testnet-data-with-idx-latest （如果节点启用了网关）. 如果您需要使用测试网中旧的节点代表数据（poll.db），可以在此处下载:  https://storage.googleapis.com/blockchain-golden/poll.testnet.tar.gz
 
+在步骤五中，您需要将 `docker run`命令行中的 docker image替换成 `iotex/iotex-core:v1.9.0-rc1`
