I wiped my ibook700 a few hours ago and am trying to get 10.2 back on it via installing 10.1 (that came with my comp) and using the upgrade. When I get about a third of the way through the install, I get a message "Cannot finish install due to errors, please restart and try again". Doing so doesn't help. The Apple knowledge base has something about a problem like this when installing 10.2 server, but it's not applicable to my case as far as I can tell.
I pulled the following from a log of the install:
Description of error for file being copied.

}

I've tried all the normal things- disk repair and what not. At the end of my rope now, any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
