Hi all!
Ummm... RedHat, Caldera, and Debian can all use RPMS. Packages that
aren't RPMed are usually .tar.gz or .tgz and can be installed by RTFMing.
Remember, it's still possible to install windoze software that _doesn't_
use the install wizard.

they all run the same kernal and to a great
extent the same software.
Yes to a point, Redhat uses RPM to assist installation,
others
(mostly) uses standard slackware installation/setup format.
I'm not sure if redhat makes of the s/w from other places other than
redhat especially with that installation or loading them onto hd.
