Remember that for flash-based platforms, it unpacks the package in /opt/packages/installed/ every time it boots, and puts the files in the appropriate locations under /opt/CPsuite-R60

So when a patch is installed, it needs to unpack that tarball, replace all the patched files, then pack it back up again. Depending on how you installed the initial package, you may have your firewall package as /opt/packages/installed/fw1_xxx.tgz, or it may be /opt/packages/installed/CPsuite.tgz.

The patch script is looking fo CPsuite.tgz. If it's not there, you can just create a symlink to the actual package, so the script works. What packages do you have under /opt/packages/installed?
Again, northlandboy comes through, really knowing his stuff.
