I can't give you step by step instructions, but I can point you in the
right direction:
Log in as root.
Insert either the install CD or the Good Bits CD. linuxconf
will be on the install CD.
Use the command "mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom" to mount the CD-ROM.
Use the cd command to find the directory under /mnt/cdrom that
has the package you want to install.
Issue the command "rpm --install PACKAGE_NAME" where PACKAGE_NAME
is the name of the rpm file that you want to install.
Once you are done installing packages, you should unmount the
CD-ROM drive by using the command "umount /mnt/cdrom".
Good luck!
