Guys,
The 11.3 repo disaster has put me in a fix with my 11.3 install. Despite downloading the kernel 7 times, every time, it was corrupt. Along with mkinitrd, etc..
I have downloaded the rpms from the repo manually and I have used a usb stick to move them to the install box. However now, (when the install is stuck on another mismatched checksum), it will not let me 'rpm -Uvh new files' into the system. The error is:
error: cannot open Package index using db3 - no such file or directory (2) error: cannot open package database in /var/lib/rpm
I know this probably means I'm using the wrong rpm command, but I've never been in this position before.

Have you tried "rpm --rebuilddb"? Sudhir -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
