When downloading rpm's where are you suppose to save them to? I downloaded a rpm and saved it to my /home/hollywood but when I go to terminal and type in the rpm to install it says that there is no file or directory. I beleive that I'm not saving them in the correct place which is causing all kinds of problems. Am I correwct and where should I be saving rpm's?

You can save them anywhere provided you supply the full path to the rpm if it's anywhere but the current working directory:

Code:
rpm -ivh /home/hollywood/whatever-1.2.3-i386.rpm
