When I downloaded RHDB iso image I also found this file: MD5SUM

Is it the PGP key you refer?
If not where can I find the good one?
How can I import It in the iso?

Thank you,

Hi Augusto,

The PGP key is actually in the iso, there is a file called
RPM-GPG-KEY in the top directory, that's the PGP key.
You can import it by:
rpm --import <directory_with_key>/RPM-GPG-KEY
More info on package signature can be found at:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-8.0-Manual/custom-guide/s1-check-rpm-sig.html

Here's a page that describes some errors/warnings that you might
encounter while installing rpms regarding the signature:

Hi,

Hopefully, by importing the gpg key, your problem will go away as well.
As for the dependencies, you can either find it in our iso, otherwise, you
should be able to get it throught Red Hat Network, which is probably
the easiest way to find them.

Permaine

Hi Lachlan,

I wasn't able to reproduce your problem, however, I suspect
you need to install the appropriate key to verify the signature,
please try to import the PGP key in the iso, and then install
again. Hopefully, that will solve  the problem.

Cheers,
Permaine

[Rommel the iCeMAn]

hi,
 same stuff happened to me! i had to manually install each rpm under the RHL
8.0 folder. They have their dependencies so during each installation they
would ask for other files, some of which i had, some i downloaded from
rpmfind.net. it's gonna be a tedious job and i can offer no more details
because i did not take notes of what i did :-(

good luck,

RHDB 2.1 and RHL 8.0

[Lachlan Evans]

Hi,

I'm having an awful lot of trouble getting RHDB 2.1 to install on a
clean RHL 8.0 install.  I really can't work out what's going wrong,
because the error messages aren't exactly all the helpful.

I get the same message I do in text mode, that I do in graphical, I just
used the text mode installation method so I'm able to show exactly what
it is I'm doing via e-mail.

Here goes:

[root@chopper cdrom]# ./Install -text

It really does not mean a lot to mean, I'm hoping someone might be able
to clue me up, maybe I'm just being stupid, I have however tried this on
several machines, with exactly the same result every time.

Any help is muchly appreciated.

Thanks.
