I'd stick with what we've got, however if you are nowhere on your system (meaning there is nothing there that you need to keep) and are just becoming frustrated, go ahead and reformat. It might give us something to work with, I am still at a loss as to why your rpm tool is claiming that function to be invalid...

Is there any chance you can give another distro a try? Mandrake maybe?

Cool
