Hi Colin,

That's a BlueQuartz VPS on Aventurin{e}. Inside the VPS you usually don't have 
a kernel, as it uses the kernel from the master node. The RPM dummy-centos-4 
provides the kernel dependencies so that the RPM database is still happy w/o 
having an actual kernel installed.

Contact me offlist and I'll sort it out for you.
