Archived from groups: comp>sys>mac>system (more info?)

I decided to download MacOS 9.2.1 via the "six pieces" method at

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120030#English

I used IE5 to do this. IE5's Download Manager said everything was
completed OK and I've got something called "Mac OS 9.2.1 Update.smi" on
my desktop - which I suppose is the first of six pieces. However I also
get an error dialog box stating

The ShrinkWrap engine has reported an error
Error -43

Is this a bogus error caused by the fact that only one of six pieces of
9.2.1 has been downloaded or is it a real error indicating the
downloaded .smi file is invalid?

What's supposed to happen when I download the next piece - will it
generate another .smi file or will the second piece be added to the .smi
file I already have?

Thanks,

Eric

Bogus error. You have instructed Explorer to mount SMI files using ShrinkWrap.
ShrinkWrap can not mount most current self-mounting images.

Try to download files with some download manager. I use for these
purposes IDM from Tonec Inc.
