Hi,
It seems that xterm is not available from livecd installation. However I
couldn't find that in the repository either.
[root@dhcppc2 mahmood]# xterm

Name and summary matches only, use "search all" for everything.
Is there any way to install that?

Mahmood,
It may be useful to use other search capabilities in yum.
For example:
yum whatprovides */xterm
This does a file or dependency based search instead of just package
names/descriptions.
I'm not running SL6, but in SL5 it is in a dedicated package called
'xterm', which appears to no longer be present in SL6.
