We have posted the i386.rpm, src.rpm, and patches on our WWW site at http://www.affinity-systems.ab.ca/software/ for util-linux--rhcn-2.9r. This is built for upgrading to the Linux 2.2 series kernels and should work under Red Hat 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, and 6.0 but were compiled under a relatively stock Red Hat 5.2 system with Kernel 2.2.9. Please note that under Red Hat 6.0, cfdisk does not work correctly in the binary distribution due to a missing libslang.so.0. You can install util-linux-rhcn-2.9r using the --nodeps flag or get the SRPM and rebuilt it locally.
