[cobalt-users] How to tell if raq 3 can support rpm?

["Dave Thomas" <yankeehater2@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello. I know how to compile php from source and i am about to

But I have a raq 3, I saw rpm's on a site that said "For redhat 6.1" ... 
etc...but people tell me I can run rpm's on my raq 3

How do I tell if this is the case? If they'd be compatible

And if I install php by rpm, I presume I must install the php/mysql rpm and 
the php/gd image library rpm first before PHP itself (rpm) so I can get them 
to work?

Would the rpm's make them compatible and KEEP my mysql settings and not 
delete them ?

Is it really so easy? If so, how to tell WHICH rpm's I CAN run on my raq 3 
when I thought rpm = red hat only?

Thanks
