Problem after crash during yum update

[Alfred von Campe <alfred@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was doing a "yum -y update" on a CentOS 4.5 system to get to 4.6  
when my system froze.  I couldn't ping it nor switch to an alternate  
console.  It was completely frozen.  The only recourse was to cycle  
the power.  So I did that, and now when I try to do a "yum update" I  
get the following error:

From the attached log file, you can see that yum was able to install/ 
update 120 packages before it crashed.  Any ideas on how to recover  
from this state?
