Pop your rh cd into the cdrom and change to the RPMS directory.  You can
then have the fun of using rpm to install what you need.  Alternately you
could do a fake "upgrade" and choose to install what you didn't put in last
time.  If you choose the first route, you will at the least have to issue
rpm -Uvh X* while in the RPMS directory.  Then you will have to install the
gnome packages required.  That last is the biggest list.  You will probably
have to pull out the book, or go to redhats website, to get the list of
packages used for gnome.  When all that is installed, you should be
operational.  Good luck.
