You could have prolly fixed this by grepping the output from lsof to see what was currently locking the db.
I didn't think of 'lsof' as I had used 'ps' and killed off everything that looked like rpm.
Wouldn't you have thought rpm would have said something like "can't get lock" rather than just going comatose?
Thanks, Michael
