well, the best way (in most cases) is to compile sources on your own machine. that way you will get the best installation for your system. in one of my machines, rpm -Uvh --force --nodeps did the work. it was RH71 as well, so maybe that will work for you to. bare in mind that --nodeps is *NOT* always recommanded, and might brake your system, but it works in most cases. tal. > > Chris Mason > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Box 340, The Valley, Anguilla, British West Indies > Tel: 264 497 5670 Fax: 264 497 8463 > Take a virtual tour of the island > http://www.anguillaguide.com/ The Anguilla Guide > Find your perfect rental villa www.mycaribbean.com > Talk to me in real time: > MSN Instant Messenger: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ICQ 118159388 Yahoo:netconcepts_anguilla > US Fax and Voicemail: (605)253-1759 > > > > _______________________________________________ > Redhat-list mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- ----------------------------------------------- [root@localhost /]# make love make: stop : dont know how to make love [root@localhost /]#ls Amir Tal, ICQ : 15748705 http://www.whatsup.org.il ----------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
