Hi All

I am stuck with installing rpm using for loop

I tried the below

#for i in 'cat list'; do rpm -ivh $i ; done

It gives me the below error

error: open of cat failed: No such file or directory
error: list cannot be installed
[root at bdc31096e root]#
[root at bdc31096e root]# cat list
sylpheed-1.0.0-3.i386.rpm
dmidecode-2.5-2.i586.rpm
[root at bdc31096e root]#

I want to use this method only since there are lots of rpm package

Thanks in Advance

Regards

Kaushal
