Thanks for telling me about the right key - rpm -q on that one has meant 
that the kernel will install now.

I'm installing the FC2 kernel as per the guidance on here: 
https://www.olen.net/node/194 - hopefully I'll be up to FC3 by the end 
of the day now :o)

One final question though - why did it not appear to work until I had 
successfully done rpm -q with the correct key name?  I thought that just 
checked if it was installed?  Before when I tried all I got (as said in 
my first mail) was:

[root at az downloads]# rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.5-1.358.i686.rpm
> error: kernel-2.6.5-1.358.i686.rpm: V3 DSA signature: BAD, key ID 4f2a6fd2
> error: kernel-2.6.5-1.358.i686.rpm cannot be installed



Cheers,

James.
