Red Hat Database 2.1 -Newbie
 

I down loaded the .iso image and burnt it to a CD-ROM, when I run the command

rpm -Uvh *.rpm

, it get these errors. I am new to Linux so this is not clicking with me. I guess that this may be because of a number of packages are not compiled to my kernal??

It looks like you need to do alot of downloading. Go to rpmfind.net and search for each of those files. It's likely that most of those files will be available from single rpms. Install those and then the database.

ok, thanks Xavier
