Hello, a bit of advice, please.

Having run an i386 machine with RedHat and various applications for a while, and keeping it up to date successfully (I believe) with their free single user system, I was aware that this was going to become unavailable but insufficiently motivated to do anything about it.

Now I particularly need PHP4.3 and I'm back on rpm dependency problems.

So, what's my best way round the problem? Find my way round (what seems a rather peculiar) dependancy maze, subscribe to Redhat, or change to another system? And would that be a complete change, or would there be sufficient compatibility to enable an update only change?

My instinct is to bite the bullet and subscribe, but I'd like more experienced views!
