Hi Winnie, You can run
rpm -qa |grep -i mysql to see exactly what the installed packages are named. Then you should be able to uninstall (rpm -e) these packages. On the other hand, there could be some package dependencies, which means, that some other software installed will not run without the RedHat MySQL RPMs...
