If you can get the rpn2cpio utility you could run 
rpm2cpio xxxxx.rpm >out.cpio 
to create an archive then run cpio -t < out.cpio to view the archive
use the -i option to extract the files.

you should be able to extract an rpm this way.

I do not know about configuring the program after this...

you could also pipe the command together

rpm2cpio xxxxx.rpm | cpio -i
this should also extract the files

hope this helps
