Hi,

If you do not have an internet access, "yum update yum" does not fix the 
problem since the package has to be available within /tftpboot/<something> to 
be able to create FC4 images (it was exactly my case). This is definitively 
not a fix.
BTW, the solution to use an online repository is still not stable, as i said, 
i had a lot of time out and OSCAR does not deal with that at all. This is the 
reason why i stopped to use this method.

Regards,
