    One of my Macs is a PowerBook WallStreet 300/384MB RAM. It had been
    running OS 10.2.8 quite nicely until a recent incident in which a
    driver installation hosed OS 10.2.8 rendering it unbootable. It would
    boot into OS 9, and doing so and running several disk utilities failed
    to fix the problem. I reinstalled OS 10.2 from the original disk.

    That went without a problem, and everything works. But I'm at 10.2.0
    and I want to get back to 10.2.8. The upgrade installer won't run...

    Try downloading and installing the 10.2.3 update. On numerous
    occasions, I've been unable to get the 10.2.8 updater to work directly
    from 10.2.0, but I have always been able to go from 10.2.0 to 10.2.3,
    and then from there to 10.2.8.
