Merging filesets for OS Upgrade

I have a complete set of AIX install media for 5307 TL1. I also have on DVD the upgrade files compiled by IBM to upgrade a server from AIX 5305 to 5308TL2.

If I run an upgrade from the IBM supplied DVD (smit upgrade_all) then the upgrade fails complaining about a large number of missing filesets. The IBM support tech tells me that these missing filesets are on the 5307TL1 install media. I believe him but how do I merge the files from the 5307TL1 install cd set with the 5308TL2 DVD which only has bff files on it?

Is there another (smarter) way of doing this?
