The only way that I know is slow and painful.

You first have to install the version of R compatible with the version of Bioconductor, R-2.11 in this case.
I then use install.packages to install individual packages downloaded from Bioconductor.
Others may have more elegant suggestions.
You cannot skip the step of installing the compatible R version first though.

thanks, i have already installed R-2.11version. I tried install individual package, but it is so hard to find all dependencies with correct version.

I had the same problem.
Perhaps the users on the Bioconductor support forum have more helpful suggestions.
