It is not so complicated to do by hand. Any of the two commands above would produce the list; it is just a question of using an editor and leaving only the needed packages, and then feeding that list to rpm:
Easily done by the vi-impaired with mc. Cool! (I *can* use vi in a pinch, but... well... why? Especially when there's an alternative? {rhetorical; not flame bait!})
cd /media/dvd/...... rpm --test --install ---force rpm1 rpm2 rpm3 rpm4.....
if it works, then repeat without "test".
This is a new invocation of CLI rpm for me. Thanks!
Notice that you can copy and paste in text mode, provided you first do "rcgpm start" to load the text mode mouse driver.
*This* little tidbit is also new to me. *Two* gold stars! Thanks again! (I wonder how Erik is progressing?) Carl
