If you did the previous installations you tried were using rpm, then rpm 
-e would have done the trick. I dont think there is any clean way to do 
this now. Finding out the associated files using the locate command and 
removing them manually one by one is one option. Doing a clean 
installation of Fedora Core 4 in a couple of days and doing yum install 
supertux is another ;-)
