-Further investigation of the ~home/bin directory reveals many files
-are different, empty or even missing altogether.  Does it make sense
-that the files would be so different in RHEL5?  I have no x windows
-and rely on response files.  Is a RHEL3 response file incompatible
-with RHEL5?

Only one error message would have been enough to make your response file unusable....
I would get an X-windows tool and redo the installation. It's clear that it's broken.
