I have the following Repositories set up: CentOS-Base.repo mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os BlueQuartz-Base.repo baseurl=http://bluequartz.org/pub/BlueQuartz/5100R/CentOS4/bluequartz/$basearch/ NuOnce.repo baseurl=http://www.nuonce.net/repos/ I killed /var/cache/yum, backed up & removed all the repos in /etc/yum.repos.d.
