Problems installing DELL Repo running Fodora Core

[heiner.wulfhorst at intermoves.de]

Hi List,


we have a PE850 Server running Fedora Core 5. Whe i try to install the 
srvadmin RPM-Packets, executing the bootstrap.cgi script fails:

Downloading GPG key: http://linux.dell.com//repo/hardware/RPM-GPG-KEY-dell
    Importing key into RPM.
Downloading GPG key: 
http://linux.dell.com//repo/hardware/RPM-GPG-KEY-libsmbios
    Importing key into RPM.
Failed to download RPM: 
http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/emptyrepo//prereq/dell-hw-indep-repository-1-15.noarch.rpm

Trying to download the failed RPM by hand gave me a 404 error.
The Wiki (http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Repository/hardware) told 
me to set "plugins=1" in yum.conf (was already set) and "editing the yum 
config and changing "fc" to "el5" ". 
The second is confusing me as i don't even have the entry for the repo in 
my cfg. So where should i change "fc" to "el5"?

Is this a server problem on dell site (because of the 404), or what did i 
do wrong?


Thx for reading, even more for any helping answer! :o)
