How can I install i386 versions of packages on a Fedora x86_64 system?
I need to be able to use flashplayer which does not have a x86_64
version.

I tried just to put 


[base]
name=Fedora Core $releasever - i386 - base
baseurl=http://fedora.csi.hu/4/i386/os

[updates]
name=Fedora Core $releasever - i386 - Released Updates
baseurl=http://fedora.csi.hu/updates/4/i386/

into a config file I named yum.conf.i386, but I get 

# yum -c /etc/yum.conf.i386 install firefox
Repository base is listed more than once in the configuration

Trying other mirror.
Error: failure: firefox-1.0.7-1.1.fc4.i386.rpm from updates: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.

I get the same error for any i386 package I try.

Thx,

Mate
