How to install .rpm packages in Fedora Linux?

Nischal ManguMar 5 2011 — edited Mar 5 2011
Hi all
I am trying to download .rpm packages for my Fedora 10 Linux but don't have a clue on how to install those? First of all, when I download them, they automatically go to my Home directory (that is on my desktop). However, when I login to the Terminal and then login as root...and give this command..

rpm -i <rpm file name>

or

rpm -ivh <rpm file name>

...it says, there is no such file or directory. Now, my question is..how do I get these .rpm files (that are on my computer Home) to the root so that the above command can work and actually installs these?

Please help.

Thank you.
