Hi All,

 From my other post, you probably know I did something fooling with
"rpm -e --nodeps" and now my (other) system won't boot completely.

If it comes to it, what is the best method of reinstalling from the 6.1
install DVD that will preserve all the former configuration and data?

Many thanks,
-T
