After booting the linux rescue I mount the dvd using mount /dev/hdd

You probably get the drift... any other requirements could be
installed manually if any one of these fail. I don't remember trying
out if yum is installed on the rescue image, which would make install
easier.
I do, and it seems I will be ok once rpm and yum are working - correct?
So if you:
rpm -Uvh neon* sqlite* rpm-libs* rpm-4*
should get rpm going, and then stuff for yum.
While you can test before rebooting by:
# chroot /mnt/sysimage
# rpm -q kernel {to test it}
Reboot is the real test: you'll have to tell us if it fixed it.
