Subject: HELP!

I don't know what happened, but the last time I ran up2date, something got majorlly screwed up.
 
Whenever I try to install any new rpm's, this is what I get....
 
error: db3 error(-30998) from db->close: DB_INCOMPLETE: Cache flush was unable to complete
rpmdb: First overflow page 914 has a prev_pgno
rpmdb: Overflow item incomplete on page 1309
error: db3 error(-30985) from db->verify: DB_VERIFY_BAD: Database verification failed
 
 
I've tried running updatedb, and it finishes, but I'm still getting the errors. What happened? And more important, how do I fix it????
 
Thanks,
Jake
