- According to IBM, the Service Pack is not guaranteed to work on a
- system with the "beta" patches installed. This came out after a
- marathon consulting session over an error syndrome almost identical
- to what you have specified (Update dies on disk 12). The only solution
- IBM had was to reinstall the GA then apply the service pack to that.
-
- Personally, I found this infuriating - not that the SP was not guaranteed
- to work on a(n) (IBM-)patched system, but that this is not documented
- *anywhere*.
