Do you have the firmware repo configured? It is obsoleted by the OM 6.2 version of the hardware repo, this is where you are finding 1.1.5. Go ahead and remove the firmware repo. To get all the updates, follow the instructions on the repo page: http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/ "yum install dell_ft_install" instead of firmware-tools. If you see that bios update issue, post the output with the verbose, -v, option.
