Upgrading IRIX 6.5 using swmgr

Upgrading IRIX 6.5 using swmgr
Hi All,

Dumb question, If I do a clean install of IRIX 6.5.8 (using the 6.5.8 overlays) installed from the system miniroot software installation (to a clean disk), is upgrading to 6.5.27 as easy as opening the 3 overlay CDs using software manager? Can this be done to any maintenance stream i.e. 6.5.12m, 6.5.24,, etc
