Hi all;

Had problems installing redhat 6.2. Managed to install a server
install. How I want to add gnome/kde, from linux.

I tried running rpm, but could not figure out which package to
install. So I tried;

rpm -Uvh *.rpm

This just gave a list of conficts.

How can I add a GUI....?

Start with this.

There's more to install but that will get XFree86 installed.
Then you can start adding the Gnome or KDE RPMs.
