WARNING!
Authored by: brodie on Aug 23, '01 10:29:56AM

Before you download 9.2.1 find out which version of 9.1 you are running, as if you do not get the same 'localized' version, you will not be able to upgrade. this is why i and many others kept getting the error message 'wrong localized version 9.1' or whatever it was. it would be a good idea if apple warned you about this before giving you the option to download. LOOK IN YOUR SYSTEM PROFILER TO FIND WHICH VERSION YOU ARE RUNNING. IT WILL SAY NEXT TO THE OS 9.1 TOP LEFT CORNER.

Which versions work?

OK, thanks for the warning -- wich versions DO work? I suppose the US version.
Does the International (Z-series) version work, too? Does this unability apply only
to localized versions?

all versions work as far as i know ( i have the international running) you just have to make sure you have the corresponding update. ie if you have int english 9.1 running, download the int english version 83.1mb. if you have the american english then DL the american english version 82mb. otherwise you get the 'localized' error message. also, im not sure if you can install OS X from 9.2, a friend of mine just tried it a number of ways and cant, maybe he's doing something wrong but you'd think it was pretty foolproof. but then mac gave no warning about this upgrade.
