I do not think that you have shown that omnipotence is dependant on omniscience but rather that it is an ability inclusive to being omnipotent. God does not have to be omniscient in order to be omnipotent.
Of course, we are both looking at this from a slightly naive standpoint. There is a question that goes: "Can God make a stone so large that even he cannot lift it?" Of course this is a paradoxical question pitting an unstoppable force against an immovable object, and many people would say that it is unanswerable.
The answer is of course "Yes". The question is not really based around God making rocks, but around God's ability to alter reality and the rules of logic that go along with it. Omnipotence would allow God to both make a rock so large he could not lift it, and be able to lift that rock, without there being a contradiction.
