Ok, but noone talk about the first problem.
What is wrong is that
rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.16-1.2111_FC5.x86_64.rpm
kernel-devel-2.6.16-1.2111_FC5.x86_64.rpm

no solution about that?
I think is not a problem related to disk spaces because yum check for
space requirement.
Maybe a rpm database's corruption.
No, it's user error.
"rpm -i" takes a FILENAME as argument - this you are doing correctly.
"rpm -e" takes a PACKAGE NAME as argument - you are giving a filename.
You have the packages already installed. To remove them:
# rpm -e kernel-2.6.16-1.2111_FC5.x86_64
kernel-devel-2.6.16-1.2111_FC5.x86_64
I can try with --force but I want to check other way before.
Never use --force or --nodeps unless you *really* know what you're doing.
