I've investigated this:
I do:
1. Take an empty machine
2. Install FC6-i386 from a DVD,
exclude Office and Productivity,
the rest is default
3. Reboot, replace i586 kernel with i686 kernel
4. Reboot
5. yum -y update
6. reboot. See that I can log in and that yum update
doesn't want any other updates.
7. Reboot on F-7 i386 DVD, select upgrade
8. Reboot.
If I now do a "yum update" I get:
===============================================================
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:
No module named rpm
Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.
It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.5 (r25:51908, Apr 10 2007, 10:29:13)
[GCC 4.1.2 20070403 (Red Hat 4.1.2-8)]
If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to
the yum faq at:

===============================================================
rpm-python has the following version numbers:
Original FC6: rpm-python-4.4.2-32
FC6 updates: rpm-python-4.4.2.1-1.fc6
Original F7: rpm-python-4.4.2-46.fc7
F7 updates: rpm-python-4.4.2.1-1.fc7
After the F7 upgrade I still have rpm-python-4.4.2.1-1.fc6
installed.
What is the Right Way of solving this problem? Using a respinned
F7 for the upgrade?

you should use the command 'yum upgrade' to upgrade from f6 to f7
