trying to install srvadmin-all on AMD-based dells (Centos 4.6)

For some reason I can't add srvadmin-all from the dell repo on two of  
my machines, both are Centos 4.6 hosts - the only thing different from  
the other hosts is that they have AMD multicore procs instead of intel  
procs.

I'm using an http proxy since these machines are on private networks,  
but I was able to download and install the bootstrap.cgi file, which  
created and downloaded the keys and repository files for dell-hw-indep- 
repository.repo and dell-hw-specific-repository.repo in /etc/yum.repos.d

When I try to search for srvadmin-all on these two hosts, I get:

while on the intel hosts, I get

Is this because there's not currently packages built for the AMD-based  
dells?
