Accessing the rpm database works, like "rpm -qa | grep kernel"? If not,
you face the old rpm bug and you will have to run "rm -f __db.00?; rpm
--rebuilddb".

My experience is that the checking for dependencies during up2date
process may take quite some time. So be patient enough.

I hope you use a mirror server for up2date.
