Updating 5.1 fails in both vCenter and Manual Patches

Hello;

Current version:  5.1.0 1743533

On Monday, I was patching my server using vCenter. During the installation, the restart was hung on
"Loading /s.v00"

I had to ALT+CTR+DEL to restart. The server then rebooted fine and I was able to get the virtuals running.

Tuesday, I then tried to rerun the patches and received the following error during the STAGE;

"The host returns esxupdate error code 15.  The package manager transaction is not successful. Check the update manager log files and esxupdate log files for more details."

So then I tried to patch manually and received the following error;

"There was an error checking file system on altbootbank, please see log for details.  Please refer to the log file for more details."

^^^ Well I can't find the location for either of these logs. So I've been playing the google search. I've tried to rename & move the locker found here with no luck: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=203066...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
