question about package installation

[ZHU Lin]

Do you mean to run "Add/Remove Software" first, and follow its instruction
to insert the proper CD?
>Don't run the installer from the CD.  As the root user, simply run one
>of these two commands on the command line:
 
               # redhat-config-packages   (for RHEL 3 and earlier)
               # system-config-packages   (for RHEL4 and later)
 
>This fires up the GUI package installer from the hard disk and you can
>start to install the items you need.  In Gnome, simply click on the Red
>Hat icon on your desktop's menu bar, then drop all the way to the bottom
>where it says "Add/Remove Software" and click.  It'll ask you to enter
>the root password and then start the installer.
 
>Not a problem.  I would suggest in the future that you at least install
>the C development system if you have the space.  It comes in REALLY
>handy, as you're now finding out!  8-)
