This error message suggests that you already (as you said) had imported the key 4f2a6fd2 and that this RPM had a bad signature. This problem should not have gone away unless you re- downloaded the kernel-2.6.5-1.358.i686.rpm file and this time it had a good signature. If the problem had been that the key wasn't imported, the error message would have said "NOKEY" rather than "BAD". Paul. -- Paul Howarth <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
