I think I can defuse this bomb by finding and deleting the downloaded install package. Yes?

If so, where can I find this install package, and if not, what do you recommend?

Thanks!

I worked the Googles and found the update package and deleted it, but I'm still afraid to restart.

Anybody know if I'm in the clear now?

Thanks!

1.Why were you updating in first place
2.Whats so bad with 10.9.2
 
*I* was not updating - I foolishly left auto updating on, and it downloaded and began insisting that install it. Then I accidentally clicked on "install," which put me in this predicament.

Nothing is wrong with 10.9.2 except that I don't want to install it until I have the time to do it right. My last update was a disaster.

So the question stands: Now that I have deleted the package, I have diffused the update bomb? Is there something else I need to do before I can safely re-start?

Thank you all again!

I've accidentally updated to 10.9.2 and now cannot boot.
First after update it booted but whiteout graphic acceleration nor sound. I've tried to fix the sound using multi beast but now I cannot boot into the OSX.
