In the recent past I only used errata to update my -release box. I now use M:Tier to patch my 5.7 box. I have found the openup utility to be reliable and trustworthy. The openup utility also has an added advantage in that it provides binary updates to programs that the errata doesn't. I was skeptical initially of M:Tier, but, it is now something I regularly use. It is something to look at if you find it difficult to use the errata.

P.S. You will need to have your source files installed for openup to work.
