Re: List Archives and Red Hat 9

The Red Hat 9 install problem was fixed by eliminating a comment from 
the stock '/etc/grab/config' file. The working config is:

   # rpm opts = #rpm opts#
    rpm opts =

and the key thing was a 'rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY' thing. Is this a new 
thing since RH80? Did Red Hat import their key automatically in RH73 and 
previous version? Just curious,
