Check "cobbler distro list" ... though you've removed the datastore you
still have configuration in /var/lib/cobbler that the RPM will not (for
general reasons of being a good citizen) not remove when you install the
package.
You should remove these with "cobbler distro remove
--name=Fedora-10-i386 --recursive" once you have the package
reinstalled. Try to avoid editing that configuration directory manually
as it leads to some bad/dangerous habits.
