hi ya dennis
you probably need to do something like
root# mv rp8_linux20_libc6_i386_cs2_rpm rp8_linux20_libc6_i386_cs2.rpm
note the *.rpm extension
root# rpm -ivh --test --force --nodeps rp8_linux20_libc6_i386_cs2.rpm
- when you are ready to install ... remove --test
- you need to tell it dont bother looking for the rpm db
c ya
