apt-get question

[bruce]

hi..

i have rh8.0. i've downlaoded apt-get in order to see how it
works/performs.. i'm trying to install a mysql beta rpm/package. apt-get
doesn't ssem to want to allow me to specify the rpm name. (google was no
help in trying to figure out how to specify the name....)

any ideas? i'm sure i'm missing something simple...

the package is -->> MySQL-Max-4.1.3-0.i386.rpm

i've tried
 apt-get install MySQL-Max-4.1.3-0.i386.rpm
 apt-get install MySQL-Max-4.1.3-0.i386
 apt-get install MySQL-Max-4.1.3-0

none of the above worked....

thanks
