Installing software in linux got a lot easier with YUM
I remember the days of Redhat 6.0 and Mandrake 6.0 when I would have so much trouble installing new rpm packages. I never knew about yum and I'm not sure if it existed back in the days. So hopefully this little article will enlighten you and perhaps make it easier for you to attempt your hand at a linux distribution.
So you installed linux but didn't install Window system (GUI) like Gnome or KDE to run rpm package installers etc........ NO PROBEM!
Try this out in your console
yum install
would be the rpm package in your linux rpm source cd (since your distro would have a naming convention like httpd-0.1.4-i386.rpm).
For example, want to have apache up and running in no time?
Type
yum install httpd
Hit Enter
It will automatically connect to the internet, download the package and any dependencies required for apache to work on your machine.
Just type y to agree to install
and BAM, its installed
How about getting PHP installed? NO PROBLEM
yum install php
Get the picture?
Well with great power comes great responsibility
Download your linux distro and power the internet!!!!!
