Hi All,

We now have OMSA 5.4 available for testing in the Dell hardware
repository at http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware. If we have a few
success reports, we will change this to be the default repository after
a week.

To install OMSA 5.4, bootstrap the repository as normal, then change the
config as follows:

YUM:
  In both /etc/yum.repos.d/dell-hw-indep-repository.repo and
/etc/yum.repos.d/dell-hw-specific-repository.repo, find the string
"repo_config=$repo_config", and change it to read,
"repo_config=OMSA_5.4".

UP2DATE:
  same as yum, except you need to change the string in
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources in two places, rather than in the yum
repository files.

SUSE 10:
  No idea. Anybody who knows how to do this should let me know. :)  See
above for the general outline.

Note that the repository is still community-support only.

Thanks,
Jeff Mendoza
