to answer my own question (and with some advice from Chris at Refractions, thanks):
I was getting errors in loading lwpostgis.sql re: liblwgeom.so altho I'd built and installed geos 3, I think I'd also earlier installed a 2.x version using "yum install" so I did a yum remove geos.i386, and redid ./configure and make and make install for the geos 3, and referenced the correct lib dir for the geos libs in /etc/ld.so.conf, and ran ldconfig, redid ./configure, make, make install for postgis (actually threw in a make clean too before make), and ran the psql -f lwpostgis.sql and it ran without error, so now I can create tables with geometry. this may help down the road next time someone runs lwpostgis.sql and it barfs over liblwgeom.so Robert H.
