please delete this if you're not interested in downloading online patches:

The SupportfolioOnline Question and Answer file:
http://www.sgi.com/Support/patch_faq.html may help you out, I don't use that as
we get patches internally, in fact we still have to register with SurfZone to
get them the same way as you tried but if none of this covers your problem it
should at least give you contact details for reporting the problem you had. It
also answers the questions about how long patches take to get to the online
site after release.

Cheers
Rob
