Subject: RH7.2 for Alpha??
To the best of my knowledge, no. RH7.1 appears to be the last version
precompiled for Alpha. Guess you could install 7.1 then grab the 7.2 src.rpm
and build them all

rpmbuild --rebuild *.src.rpm

and wait 3 weeks for each one to finish.

Or go with Debian. Looks like (from www.linuxiso.org) that it is the only
Distro to still have support for Alpha, sigh.
