Nick,
  Are you doing a complete scratch reload of the system or an upgrade from a
previous OS verision?  If you reloaded microcode (SLIC) and had to add all disks
in that process then there is NO prior version of OS/400 or it's PTFs to worry
about.  If you are doing an upgrade then the pre-existing PTFs are removed as
the programs are replaced with newer versions.  If you are just re-loading
OS/400 and your programs and data (with SLIC still in place) then the MF ptfs
from before should all still be there.

  What this sounds like is a corrupted table of some sort as to what PTFs exist
and what status they are in.  If you haven't already taken this rash step I
would call supportline on this one.
