    Apologies all. I was trying to do a 'yum list' of an FC4 repo
    from my FC3 system, and missed a pile of the output.
    Furthermore, I see from the list that there are still firewire
    problems with the latest kernel (which is where I came in)
    so I think I'll just wait a bit.

    Cheers,
    Terry.
