Given an out of the box Linux installation, what needs to be done to cvs before logging onto the braille.uwo.ca cvs server and checking out projects like socrates and listen-up? What I figured might be possible after that short server type installation was to go into each disks RPMS directory and do rpm -ivh * --nodeps and whatever files failed the rpm test would be failed by verification. Then I figured to use yum and do yum install * to get files I didn't already have because those had errored out back on the rpm command and install those files, then I'd have a complete FC2 installation if not necessarily having gone through the normal installation process.
