OK - here's my methodology for upgrading in case it helps someone<BR>
<BR>
cp /etc/redhat-release /etc/redhat-release-saved<BR>
rpm -e --nodeps redhat-release-notes \<BR>
redhat-releaserpm \<BR>
yum-rhn-plugin \<BR>
redhat-logos<BR>
rpm -ivh \<BR>

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/i386/CentOS<A HREF="http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/i386/CentOS/centos-release-notes-5.0.0-2.i386.rpm">/centos-release-notes-5.0.0-2.i386.rpm</A><BR>
yum update<BR>
<BR>
Seems to have worked just fine (redhat-logos replaced automatically as a dependency)<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for the help, sorry about the html but I the long lines were breaking<BR>
