NOTE: just read in another thread than an ATT 830 owner tried to download via Insider and it skipped update 2 and installed WP10 build so be aware...
Yep, just happened to me as well. it went right for the WP10, rather than the intermediate GRD2. I've deleted the Insider App before the download, but it still looks like it's going to auto-install WP10 at some point - the message was something like 'if I don't manually start the installation by 6.15.15, it will automatically install it.'

I think a hard reset will stop that, but back up apps and data and remember the date so you don't download Insider again.

There is a TUTO that let SD Card enabled Lumias , to modify some registry keys and then you get to upgrade to GDR2.. If I'm not world that tutorial is in this forum, if you can't find it lookup in XDA Forums.. Under Windows Phone 8-> Development&Hacking

Insider pulled GDR2 down before attempting to pull 10TP. GDR2 works just fine on the T-Mobile 925 with this.

Can I install GDR2 on my L925 (without a carrier, don't know what you call it) by installing the insider app and uninstalling it before it downloads the W10M ?

In the past that would've been possible. I wouldn't risk it now unless you don't mind the risk of hardresetting.

Update 2 is no longer a temporary stop as it was early on. it upgrades straight to 10 more often than not now.
Wow, thanks! The thing is, MSFT shouldn't have forsaken 8.1 in anxiety of 10. I think L925 is a very nice rig, but just been pushed out of the spotlight, unfairly.
