Unable to read DOS Wordperfect diskettes

Question:

I am using AIX 3.2.5 with PIC running on top of AIX.  I would 
like to convert from DOS WordPerfect to AIX Wordperfect.  But,
I don't have the DOS utilities (bosext2.dosutil.obj) on my system.
I have been trying to install the Base Operating System 
Extensions 2 (bosext2.obj) from my install tape but every time
it fails.  Can you help?

So far I have had the install fail on me with these errors:

   Installation failed because of a lack of pre req. 

But, lslpp -p bosext2.dosutil.obj indicates there are no prereqs for the
DOS Utilities.

It also failed with:

  1800-035 exit status (142) returned by command
  (command process used stdout and sterr file connected to smit 
   through pipes)

Response:

The problem was actually low paging space.  You increased the paging 
space by 12MB and you were able to install bosext2.dosutil.obj
without any more problems.
