Some of these are bioconductor packages--you won't be able to install
them using install.packages(). See
http://www.bioconductor.org/install/. Some (or at least one) has been
removed from CRAN (see
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/graph/index.html). As for the
rest, you should post the error messages so we can see what the
problem is.
