As far as I understand you need the filesets for "bos.adt.libm 5.3.0.0".

You can't install it from another systems mksysb. Try to get that fileset to install..

Load each cd, move to the installp directories with all the filesets and try the command below

# installp -Ld . |grep bos.adt.libm
bos.adt:bos.adt.libm:5.3.8.0::I:T:::::N:Base Application Development Math Library ::::0:0818:
bos.adt:bos.adt.libmio:5.3.8.0::I:T:::::N:Modular IO Library ::::0:0818:

That the output from one of my repositories. its part of bos.adt.
