Fedora Core 2 new install -

[BOB GOODWIN]

"/dev/cdrom is supposed to be a symlink to whichever device the CD is
using. I bet the FC2 install changed it from /dev/scd0 to /dev/hdc."

No, but once I changed the link to /dev/cdrom -> /dev/hdc  I was able
to mount the CD again! It was /dev/cdrom -> /dev/scd0 before I changed it.
I believe that was an artifact of RH9?

So now I'm confused, when I try to install the kernel rpm:

[root at box1 RPMS]# rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.5-1.358.i586.rpm
warning: kernel-2.6.5-1.358.i586.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 
4f2a6fd2
error: Failed dependencies:
        module-init-tools is needed by kernel-2.6.5-1.358
        mkinitrd >= 3.5.5 is needed by kernel-2.6.5-1.358
        nfs-utils < 1.0.3 conflicts with kernel-2.6.5-1.358
        initscripts < 7.23 conflicts with kernel-2.6.5-1.358

And I can't locate "module-init-tools"

It seems to me there should be no failed dependencies after I ran the 
Fedora Core 2 "upgrade?"  I guess I could solve all these problems by 
doing a straight install but I hate to face another week of getting 
things back to where I want them as I have done too many times before.

All the responses have been very much appreciated.

Thank you all.
