To be honest, I really don't know, I join this email list to actually get trained over on-line on how to use this. Did you tried to find the rpm manually... like using awk, or sed, "ls *.rpm" while in the mnt/cdrom drive.Sorry, I am kind of like what you call it ambitious person. My developing skill is 3.4 on the scale out of 10. 8 == c++. I am only 16.
