Notes

All the patches should be available with a free Supportfolio account from SGI.
For some of these patches there are later revisions still but they are not free.
In some cases you can get away with using an earlier revision of a patch ie. instead of 3356 you might be able to do with 2420.
There are many other patches that you might want to install but I won't list them all here. Just get all the free patches for Irix 6.2 from supportfolio and install them if possible.
