No such luck, but I was able to figure out what's what...it turns out that
the product disks have each product in a directory named the same as the
product number.

I got it all going by proceeding as I'd outlined. It's IPLing now after the
final PTF install. Everything seems to be in order. It's even survived a
couple of power blips that knocked down two PCs in the same room...nice
power supply in that box. :-)

Now, anyone need a doorstop (the dead CD-ROM drive) and a boat anchor (a
9402-400 that won't run)?
