Hi, I am running into a similar problem. I have Cobbler installed on a RHEL5 x86_64 system and I am not able to use reposync to fetch the i386 channels.
I was playing with mrepo before and it can handle this more gracefully by creating "dummy" profiles for each OS/arch (albeit at an expense of a license per dummy profile, okay for us since we have a site license). The benefit is that I can disable the RHN plugin altogether so that my systems need only talk to my mirror repos, although I still check in with RHN to keep my system information up-to-date. I haven't tried this yet, but I think it would be possible to use the "rhnget" command from mrepo to mirror the RHN channels. If I understand correctly, it should be possible to call this from a pre-sync script. Any hints would be appreciated; I have only been tinkering with Cobbler for about a week and I haven't even built my first system yet!
