Really Old Mac OSX Upgrades Failing

Recommended Posts

Now that I finally have highspeed I figured I'd upgrade my Powermac G3 back up to 10.2.8 from 10.2. I can't install right to 10.2.8 but have found out thats normal and that I should install 10.2.6 first. The problem is when I do that it locks up on "Finding moved files" (the first thing it does) and just does nothing until it eventually closes installer. I figured I'd just take the long way and go through .1, .2, .3 ..etc, but got as far as installing 10.2.1 and can't find an upgrade to .2 unless I torrent the entire install disc. Anyone have any suggestions at all? I know its an older system but it still does what I need it to and now that I've got my network setup I want to use it as a simple file and music server. I also want 10.2.8 because any VNC server apps I've found are for 10.2.8 and up and I want to install one so I can just remote access it from my laptop instead of switching the monitor and keyboard and mouse into it all the time.

Anyway. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
