Both GNORPM and kpackage give the following report when I try to install star office (this package installed under 6.0), also tryed other packages. I have All of RedHat6.1GPL installed. (this installed when I upgraded, I did not use upgrade option I just overwrote the whole OS except /home then fixed some config files in /etc) Installing package XXXX needs 23M on / file system.

Do you have symlinks pointing into /mnt/cdrom ? Does the package have paths that traverse those symlinks? Meanwhile, add --ignoresize to the rpm command to skip disk space checking.
Closed for lack of input.
