It is.

I have to have the EL6 rpms, not the F19 rpms.

The way I build the system, is I copy the F19 uboot partition, untar the 
RSEL tarball to /, then replace /lib/modules and /lib/firmware from a 
F19 drive, oh and install the Cubieboard2 uboot from F19.  It comes up 
with RSEL and everything else is working so far.  Except can't get 
SELinux to go.

I have a 9" tape sitting on a shelf in my basement datacenter, but no 
tape drive to connect to any of my systems...
