So the old instructions were:
> > > rpm -ivh /sipb-nfs/redhat/4.2/i386/RedHat/sets/Athena/*
Should we just change that last line to:
> > > rpm -ivh /mit/linux/packages/*
? Will that install all the Redhat packages available, or just add the
Athena ones? I don't want the user to do the above command if it will just
install every available package.
