Solaris 6.5 to 6.5.3 upgrade issues

Hi,

Trying to upgrade my Solaris x86 Master from 6.5 to 6.5.3. For some reason it just keeps failing asking for the 6.5.3 CLT and vice versa for the master server patch...they are all there. I've done multiple deletes, re-downloaded, etc, tried with different shell (bash and sh), tried from different path, etc, etc and it still won't work. Any advice appreciated.

Same error repeats:
 

bash-3.00# ./NB_update.install

There are 2 packs available in /export/home/software/NBU6.5.3:
(* denotes installed pack)

        NB_6.5.3
        NB_CLT_6.5.3

Enter pack name (or q) [q]: NB_6.5.3

      Pack NB_6.5.3 requires pack NB_CLT_6.5.3 or a later.

Pack NB_6.5.3 requires the following pack levels(s) :
         NB_CLT_6.5.3.

Pack NB_6.5.3 will not be installed at this time.

You need the core release specific to x86.  What I see there, unless I am missing it, is the RISC version.
