Hi All,

The yum repo bootstrap script looks for the presence of certain rpms to 
determine if you are on suse: sles-release, sled-release, or suse-release. It 
uses the version of that rpm to get you the right repo, sles 10 or sles 11.

I don't know if or what OMSA might check to see if you are using suse, and what 
version. SLES 11 was not supported in OMSA 5.5, you'll need 6.1. I assume 
OpenSuse 11.1 would be the same.
