RPMs problem

[Alexandre RENE <alexr starhub net sg>]

Hi all!

I have RedHat 8.0 installed and, since I am a biot of  a NooB at this,
my question might seem trivial...  My apologies.

I can't seem to be able to install RPMs on my system, wether it be from
the GUI (GNOME ) or on the command line...

Same thing for the system's original RPMS... I cant seem to modify that.
For whatever reason the system starts checking on installed packages,
and stops right in the middle, before even telling me what packages are
actually installed...

I would hate to have to re install everything from scratch again, so I
would really appreciate it if anyone had a hint or 2 about this.

Thanks
