I recently got an O2 running 6.5.6m, and would like to upgrade to 6.5.22m. I've downloaded the three overlay .tar.gzs from SupportFolio, but even loading all three into swmgr, there are still 56 installation conflicts.

I'd go ahead and install anyway, but I would like NFS support and such...what can I do to resolve the conflicts? It seems that first upgrading with an older maintenance release would do the trick, but I can't find any earlier than 6.5.22m, on SupportFolio or on the web. Can anyone offer a suggestion?

Yes, that was the first thing I did. However, I've downloaded, gunzipped, and untarred the three overlay .tar.gz files (IRIX6.5.22_1of3 and etc.), and after adding all three of them in swmgr, there are still numerous unresolved conflicts, for things such as NFS and etc. My question is, should I first upgrade to an intermediate release, in between 6 and 22? And if so, where do I obtain one of those, since SGI 's website no longer hosts any overlays earlier than 22?

I don't actually have the foundations CDs, unfortunately; picked the machine up from a school before they could pitch it. Are there any cheap sources out there? eBay looks none too appealing on a free-computers budget.
