Chandler you are completely confused. First we speak about nalimov
tablebases, second we speak about F9 which does not come with tablebases
and not on CDs.

I must destroy your dream, you had nalimov tablebases at all ;-)
You use the completely outdated _Thompson_ tablebases and from those
only 3-4men plus _some_ 5men.
(Only those Thompsons could be loaded by a tablebase engine in ancient
times - the Thompsons were from the mid nineties...)

May be time for you to try nalimov all 5 men ;-)
