1. cvs co loncapa
2. wget ftp://ftp2.sourceforge.net/pub/mirrors/mandrake/updates/7.0/RPMS/mod_perl-1.21-21mdk.i586.rpm
3. rpm -Uvh mod_perl-1.21-21mdk.i586.rpm
4. http://install.lon-capa.org/3.1/currentcdsource/RedHat/RPMS/LON-CAPA-base-3.1-1.i386.rpm
5. rpm -Uvh --force --nodeps /home/ng/RPMS/LON-CAPA-base-3.1-1.i386.rpm
6. cd loncapa/loncom/build; make rpmstatuspost
7. Look at http://HOSTNAME/lon-status/rpmstatus.html
   Look for the two sections: RPMS from the "bare minimum" set that you
                              are missing 

                              and

                              RPMS from the "development" set that you
                              are missing 

   These are RPMs you should probably update (DO NOT NOT NOT
   ever update LON-CAPA-setup though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

   Note, I did not remove any RPMs.  I was fairly liberal about
   leaving out various RPMs also.

8. Download original mandrake 7.0 rpm set (probably use ISO here)
   ftp://jungle.metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/distributions/mandrake/
         Mandrake-iso/i586/mandrake70-2.i486.iso
   rpm -Uvh --force samba-*
   rpm -Uvh xntp3-5.93-4mdk.i486.rpm

From install.lon-capa.org/3.1/latestRPMS
rpm -Uvh swig-1.1p5-3.i386.rpm

9. Download update RPMs.
ftp://ftp2.sourceforge.net/pub/mirrors/mandrake/updates/7.0/RPMS/

Using a modified CVS:loncapa/loncom/build/kirs.pl
78 RPMs currently on the system are updated

unable to upgrade mod_php3

openldap added to system
grpmi added to system
urlview added to system

10. Download LON-CAPA RPMs.
