Re: OS X 10.1.5 to 10.2 to 10.2.6

[John Wilson]

You can do it that way but it's simpler and safer to go directly from 
10.2 to 10.2.6 as has been mentioned on this and many other lists and 
sites, most notably MacFixit. People have consistently reported 
problems using the smaller incremental downloads. It's also a good idea 
to save the .dmg file by either downloading directly from Apple's web 
site, or, if you use Software Update, click on "download checked items 
to desktop" under the "Download" menu. This way you'll have it in case 
you have to re-install the upgrade without having to download it again. 
If you have a dial-up connection, get someone with broadband to 
download it and burn it to a CD or some other media your system can 
read. John

Yes, but that one is free at the Apple site. The updater that goes 
from 10.2
directly to 10.2.6 (bypassing, or including in-between updates) is 
about
81mg, in .dmg format.
When I did this for an upgraded machine there were two separate 
downloads:  the first to upgrade to 10.2.5; the second to 10.2.6.
