Sorry for the misleading example.  The kernel package that I mentioned is the 
package that gave ME the error.  I'm sure not suggesting that you install a 
different kernel, just that when I added the additional options to rpm, the 
installation worked.  Also, I browsed for the rpm package, downloaded it with 
the browser, then installed it from the command line with "rpm".

Best of luck...
