current--repair RPM database
how can I force an upgrade to a newer kernel... I am on 2.6.9-5.0.3.EL but
it is showing that2.6.9-11.EL is available... I get the message that I
should reboot to test, but it never shows up in my boot list. The only
instance available is 2.6.9-5.0.3.EL
Thanks
Dave

'Use --initdb to create a new database, use --rebuilddb to rebuild the
database indices from the installed package headers.'
As in --initdb would efectively nuke all your bookkeeping about
installed RPMS.
