So I copied the OS 9.1 System Folder, (configured with "Mac OS 9.1 All" sets on), to a FW drive attached to the 8500, and then tried to upgrade it on the 8500, but the 9.2.1 installer gave the message, "This program cannot run on your computer".
So I moved the FW drive over to the iMac, downloaded the updaters again, and tried to upgrade it there. It seemed to be progressing along OK, but then the installer "unexpectedly quit".
I repaired permissions, and then went to the Classic panel of System Permissions, and selected the OS9 System Folder on the FW drive, and restarted Classic. Then I tried to run the 9.2.1 installer again. This time the error message said,
'Problems were encountered accessing the
file "System" on the disk "Desk". Please
move the file to another folder and try again'
Any suggestions?

Try copying your update to the FW drive and install it from the same drive it is on.....
