Thanks for the pointer.  Well I copied the log file from the system that 
I installed on but it doesn't seem to help much. Wouldn't 
glibc-2.3.5-10.i386.rpm have been installed by the busybox rpm program?  
I don't think that packages before the FC4 rpm program is installed are 
loged.  At least that is what it appeared from the log file.  The log 
file followes as an attachment.
