Anaconda is the initial installer Up2date handles updating for errata etc Tools like kpackage and gnorpm handle package installs graphically My favourite however is apt-rpm - http://apt-rpm.tuxfamily.org, although you'd need to copy your CD set somewhere and index it, and see what was needed for S/390 portability. With that I can simply type apt-get update [packagename] and it will do all the needed work for me - fetching files, doing dependancies finding any other package needed, working out which is the newest source of a package and so on.
