I've done this in my home computer, just to test it and repeat it in a

serious problem: the rpm database is empty. Only the newly installed rpms
appear.
I've tried rpm --rebuilddb and rpm --initdb to no luck.
I've just tried to make a CD update and, obviously, as there are no rpms,
it does nothing.
Any hint to recover this rpm database?
Something didn't finish completely, then. Did you run out of disk space,
perchance?
No everything run fine.
I don't know of a way to recover your rpmdb, no.
I have a list of the installed packages in the yum.log file. Someone
suggested me to try with rpm --justdb. I'll see how to do that.
Thanks
