What is $1? Are you running this grep in a script? (you said $2 in your original post)
Show me how you run the script (i.e. if you pass $searchParam to the script, do you quote that (i.i.e mySctipt "$searchParam")).

DESCRIPTION
rinse is a simple script which is designed to be able to install
a minimal working installation of an RPM-based distribution into
a directory.
The tool is analogous to the standard Debian GNU/Linux debootstrap
utility.
USAGE
To use this script you will need to be root. This is required
to mount /proc, run chroot, and more.
Basic usage is as simple as:
rinse --distribution fedora-core-6 --directory /tmp/test
This will download the required RPM files and unpack them into
a minimal installation of Fedora Core 6.
To see which RPM files would be downloaded, without actually
performing an installation or downloading anything, then you
may run the following:
rinse --distribution fedora-core-6 --print-uris
TODO
Short of supporting more distributions or architectures there aren't
really any outstanding issues.
