OK,
NOTE: This was hinted at a couple of days ago about "Fluxbox" install.
I wanted to install IceWM. It proved even simpler than I thought:
0. $ su -
1. Download lastest icewm + icewm-gnome-menu (rpm).
2. rpm -i icewm-*.rpm
3. cd /etc/X11/Sessions/dm
4 cp gnome.desktop icewm.desktop
5. vi icewm.desksop
[esc]: (to get command prompt
:%s/GNOME/ICEWM/g <RET>
6. Go to bottom of screen and change Exec = /usr/bin/icewm
7. [esc]:wq; exit and logout of gnome and re-login
At this point should see ICEWM as a "sessions" options
