Are you telling us that your rpmdb did not contain any kernel entry after your upgrade to 2.4.20-18.9? That's more surprising to me than the fact that you can't remove the only kernel reference from the rpmdb. You could remove the kernel by ignoring the dependencies and afterwards add it using --justdb, so the kernel rpm will be gone, but you do have a reference to it in the rmpdb.
