I cant get this to complete the install of 9.2.1 update on my
(7600 series PowerMac 400 mhz G3 Sonnet upgrade card with mac os 9.1)
when it is installing the actual 9.2.1 update it checks the disk, finds that its ok, then installed the new apple hard disk drivers. then right hwne its done with that it tells me that there is a file named "Desktop Pictures" on the system Hard drive that already exists and to please rename ot delete it, so the installer stops and im supposed to delete this file.
But whats messed up is the file doesnt exist! so how am i supposed to delete it :\
its not even a invisible file, i've searched many a different ways for this "Desktop Pictures" folder or file whatever it is, and it simply dooes not exist. and yet every time i atempt to install the 9.2.1 update it insists its there and will not complete installation till i renamed or removed. I've even rebuild the desktop and scanned the drive with first aid, and norton, and still come up with the same problem..

One of the best shareware programs I have ever used! The fee of only $10 makes one ashamed because it is worth much more! It is true OS 9.2.2 is much more stable than 9.1. OS9 Helper is stable. In fact, since installing Helper on my Sonnet G3 / 8600, it has NEVER been so stable!
Please choose a different destination disk, or perform a clean
installation."
I tried with three different versions of 9.1 (US, International and French) and with two Macs (PowerBook 3400c ant PowerMac 5500) - always with the same ending :-/
