10.4 update wont install

[Dustman]

So when I go to Software Update, it doesn't show the 10.4.11 update, and when I try downloading and installing it, i get an error saying that my computer doesn't meet the requirements (I have a gig of ram, 9 gigs HD free and a powerpc processor & ofcourse, 10.4.10). anyone have any ideas on how i can get this to install? I tried downloading both the combo and the delta. neither worked

Restart and try again. What machine do you have?

That is an odd error message. Have you done the Disk Utility Repair Disk, Repair Disk Permissions? Running the updater with nothing else running? Reboot, hold the Shift key down, into Safe Mode? Something is wrong with your drive, the Updater is probably not the problem.

Probably a stupid question, but are you sure that you downloaded the ppc version of the patches? AFAIK there are both Intel and PPC versions, not a universal version.

according to the post, the OP used Software Update, so this wouldn't be an issue.

No, it says that the update didn't show up in Software Update, so I assumed that he downloaded it manually.

same problem

The exact same thing happened to me. I have 10.4.6 and I want to upgrade to 10.4.10 and my computer is giving me the same message.

Im not so sure what to do. Is it something with my actual hardware?
Thanks-
