extracting rpm.

Hi All,
Problem : I have 2.4 running on my machine. Now, I want to extract an rpm of 2.2
source(both header rpm and source rpm)  possibly in some place like /mnt/space
and I dont' want to corrupt or deletion of my existing 2.4 source tree. Is this
possible?. I tried a lot and unable to extract. At last I tried using rpm2cpio,
but it lists as an sigle file.

TIA,
-Honne


Unix is simple. It just takes a genius to understand its simplicity.
