Ok let me get this straight, the program I want to install StarOffice is
140mb.
When I try to install using rpm, it tells me that there isn't enough room on
the / filesystem, and that I need 140mb to install this program.
This is the first software I'm installing after a brand new installation of
RedHat 6.0
I'd presume that --dbpath is the path to the Package manager DB, ie where it
keeps track of installations???
Therefore, the path in which the software is installed can be different to
the path of the rpm database... how do I specify a path of the software
installation....?????
Thanks for all the Help ..
