Yeah, me too. Find a bug, and get your name in blinking lights. : )

I tried downloading and running the update, and it wouldn't install over 
my copy of 10.2.2 (public beta, build 14C106a).

It threw up the message (to the effect):
"Your system doesn't support the update".

Just wondering if someone who -does- successfully install the posted 
version of 10.2.2 would be kind enough to post the build number after 
running the update?

There is a huge difference between 10.10 and 10.2.

10.10.2 (14C109)

Installed over the public beta.

I was able to download [what I believe to be] the "delta" (not combo) 
updater using Software Update via the App Store.

I left Software Update to run itself for a while, and the machine just 
hung with a tiny amount of the "progress bar" consumed.

I forced a shutdown with the power-on key, and then rebooted.

Mac booted right back up to finder, so I looked in library/updates and 
located the delta update.
It shows TWO install packages:
FirmwareUpdate.pkg
OSXUpd10.10.2.pkg

I boot and run my Mini from an SSD mounted in a USB3/SATA docking 
station, so I will -assume- that this arrangement was interfering with a 
firmware update.

I then launched the 10.10.2.pkg updater, and it did the job (firmware 
notwithstanding). Upon a reboot, build version is now at 14C1009, but I 
presume withOUT the firmware update.

If anyone is having trouble that might be firmware-related, I believe 
you can obtain the 10.10.2.pkg at:
http://swcdn.apple.com/content/downloads/33/25/031-17157/5k6hpmzq78ticvk917gme657p9o2kqye8e/OSXUpd10.10.2.pkg
(no promises, but worth a try)

Okay, so one time? In band camp? John Albert <j.albert@snet.net> was all, like:

I assume you mean 10.10.2.

14C109. I was running 14C106 before. If you were still on 14C99 or
earlier, you will need to download the full installer, I believe.

These are not showing up for me in the App Store - any idea what might
be causing that? Yosemite 10.10.1.

It's never been unsafe as far as I can tell.

Apple's Yosemite discussion board contains reports of persistent Wi-Fi
problems in 10.10.2. More disturbing is that some of those who did *not*
have such problems in 10.10.1 now report them in 10.10.2. (The apparent
fix is to replace the new 802.11 extension with the older one from
10.10.1.) If these reports pan out, it's an indication that Apple simply
isn't doing enough pre-release testing of software.

Did a quick search on how to set the extension back to the old one and 
didn't find anything. Is it hard to do?

Coincidentally I got an Apple Bug Report message claiming that 10.10.2 
would resolve the e-mail issue (changing settings) and they're urging me 
to try it.

If you don't hear from me send the Saint Bernard.

You know, the one with a keg of brandy.
