well, hopefully you know the root password. Assuming you do, just type this...
su
and hit enter. It will ask for a password. Enter it, and bam, you're root. Now try and install the rpm.
When you're done, make sure you type
exit
so you're not root anymore. It's important to make sure you're not root when doing normal things, so you do'nt screw up and ruin your system...
Good luck,
