Ok...maybe this is a basic question but I need to affirm this in my mind. Does every .RPM get installed into /usr/bin ?? I am confused as to where things go when I install them. Also, I am confused about /root. Is there actually two of them? I assume that /root is equal to c:/: is this correct?

just use gnorpm, go a query on the package (can be done before or after install) to see what files get installed.
if you wnat to do it at the mighty command line (per rpm NHF) do a rpm -ql package_name for installed packages and for an unintalled package
rpm -qilp package_name.rpm
