I am attempting to install Oscar 6.0.5-1 on Rhel 5.5 and continuously run into 
the same errors. The Oscar packages install correctly however when running 
oscar-config --bootstrap , it can't workout the format of the repos. A local 
copy of Rhel 5.5 rpms has been created in /tftpboot/distro/redhat-el-5-x86_64 
and packman run over this directory which oscar-config picks up so it seems to 
only have problems with the online repo.
The basic steps followed for installation are:
1.   install and basic configuration of Rhel, including networking two 
interfaces eth0 for public network and bond0 for cluster network
2.   update yum to include oscar repositories 
3.   install oscar and other required rpms
4.   copied all Rhel 5.5 rpms from dvd to /tftpboot/distro/redhat-el-5-x86_64 
and run packman on this directory
5.   run oscar-config --setup-distro redhat-el-5-x86_64 this does setup the 
required directories
6.   run oscar-config --bootstrap and received the errors list in the attached 
copy of the bootstrap.log
7.   as I have run this a number of times, I have run oscar-config --startover 
to clean up the install
8.   I have also reinstalled Rhel a number of time just in case this was the 
problem
9.   I have monitored the network traffic and the server does communicate with 
the repo, and receives an answer
10.  the server can browse to the required web site and download rpms if 
required.

Updates to Rhel have been done at different stages of the installation/build 
and this hasn't made any difference. Has anybody come across this problem 
before and/or know a solution to getting Oscar working on Rhel 5.5. I have look 
at the mailing list and though the error is listed there is not published 
solution.
