Well, I downloaded the update twice (once via Software Update on the Beige G3 itself, and once on a PC running Win2k) from home and once on a friend's brand new 2 GHz G5 iMac, and my Beige G3 wouldn't mount the .dmg, and Software Update said it was unable to decompress the update. Is this a problem with the file hosted on Apple's servers? Or am I just missing something? Anybody out there run into this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
