Hi Suresh,

The RPM I am referring to is the one I downloaded when I had Red Hat 6.1 on my 
machine. I had
installed the program using the same RPM on Red Hat. Now since I have removed Red Hat 
and installedSuSE 6.3 I wanted to install that program again. So I tried to install 
using the same RPM(which
was backed up on my Windows FAT32 partition). Now during installation it is giving 
error :

unpacking of archieve failed : cpio : bad magic

However other RPM's which I had backed up on my Windows FAT32 partition installed 
properly.

Anything can be done for the above error or Downloading again is the only option ?

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Rajesh
