Under RH8.0, it is a step by step process, first checking for updates, click then 
downloading updates, click then installating updates. I believe it will only rewrite 
these file which required to update, not something else.(I also believe they will be 
named xxx.oldrpm) Also there is an option in RH network agent that allow "RPM 
rollbacks" .
