Hi Andrew, I have achieved to do this by deleting the the sl-* from /etc/yum.repos.d, below is an excerpt of one of my scripts. If you include any further scipts/action after this portion is run, you should be ok. btw, you may want to run addsiteyum, to make sure that you have local repositories in /etc/yum/repos.d
rm -rf /etc/yum.repos.d/{sl-*,sl.repo}
