installing docbook


Sorry for these questions, but I'm trying to learn docbook and downloaded
the following.
-rw-rw-r--    1 build    build       94441 Aug 20 22:57
docbook-3.1-5.noarch.rpm
-rw-rw-r--    1 build    build     3739675 Aug 20 22:56
jade-1.2.1-4.i386.rpm
-rw-rw-r--    1 build    build     1217844 Aug 20 22:57
jadetex-2.5-0.noarch.rpm
-rw-rw-r--    1 build    build     1181042 Aug 20 22:57
jadetex-2.7-0.noarch.rpm
-rw-rw-r--    1 build    build      280447 Aug 20 22:57
psgml-1.0.3-2.noarch.rpm
-rw-rw-r--    1 build    build      208314 Aug 20 22:57
psgml-1.2.1-1.noarch.rpm
-rw-rw-r--    1 build    build       18749 Aug 20 22:58
sgml-common-0.1-3.noarch.rpm
-rw-rw-r--    1 build    build      320687 Aug 20 22:58
stylesheets-0.10-2.noarch.rpm

I got them from the url below, but noticed that when I rpm'd them, I had
later versions of serveral of these so I kept my later ones (installed w/ RH
7.x). And I didn't install jade because I had openjade.

$ ncftp ftp://sourceware.cygnus.com
ncftp> cd pub/docbook-tools/docware/RPMS
ncftp> mget i386/*.rpm
ncftp> mget noarch/*.rpm
ncftp> quit

So I tried my first docbook according to this pages tutorial and did not see
the docbook2html cmd as found at this url.

All in all, I'm pretty clueless as to what I'm doing here so could someone
give me an idea what needs to be done? I was expecting to create *.docbook
files and run them through something that would spit out some html pages for
me.

Any help much appreciated.
