Thanks, Mike. I tried exactly what you suggest. The result was a system response advising that dmidecode was not a bash command.

Paul Howarth may have provided the answer to my riddle in noting that dmidecode is an FC-3 kernel facility. I am using FC-2.

 dmidecode is part of kernel-utils, try "yum install kernel-utils" and it's
been around since at least 7.3.

Thanks Dave.
