Hi there,
While running a yum update the hdd did get an error and the system was remounted in read only mode.
The error seems gone, but the rpmdb is not fine anymore, i did do rpm --rebuilddb But now i get weird errors with installing packages, like dupes or already installed (but it is not).
How do i create a new rpmdb with current installed packages?
Or am i doomed? :)
An hdd error means - kiss your data good bye.
Salvage whatever data files you need, take the hard drive and throw it in the trash.
