I'm running from a win98 client + I did not install the gnome, KDE and x
windows stuff on the mf when I ran loader. lesson learned but I need to
get the textbased part running for now and get the rpms later. is there
a way I can install gnome, KDE and X without having to RPM?

you are able to do all the gui stuff ... but not on the mainframe: just
use an x-server on your client machine and let run the appropriate
server programms (the x-clients) 'headless' on the mf. this
client:server thingy is in xwindows the other way around - the cpu
eating gui is running on the client as an x-server and the server
programs like xclock are running as clients on a big machine without a
gui needed.
