Don't have the RH CD ;-)) And I'm not the only one who had problems with it
;-))
But, when I finally found rpm binary, it turned out that I have no rpmrc ;-))
So I did 'touch /usr/lib/rpmrc' and there! it worked, only with some strange
errors like 'unknown i486 architecture' ;-)

You're just a waste of time, you're just a babbling face, you're
just three sick holes that run like sores, you're fucking waste
you're like a slug on the floor, oh you're usless and ugly and
useless and ugly, and shiver and shake when I think of how you
make me hate.
