easy answer...rpmforge is for all purposes of Fedora Core 4, dag

install this package
http://rpmforge.net/user/packages/rpmforge-release/

rpm -ivh http://rpmforge.net/user/packages/rpmforge-release/
should do it

Grabbed it, but slightly confused.  The site says that it contains the
gpg-keys, but yum says I need the keys to install it.  I'm still looking
for the keys - I'm sure they must be there, but they are certainly not
obvious.

then yum update - should be interesting

yum search lshw

with the right repositories, you shouldn't have to go searching around
the number of places rpms can be found.

# locate GPG-KEY-rpmforge
/usr/share/doc/rpmforge-release-0.2/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmforge-matthias

/etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmforge-dag
/etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmforge-dries

rpm --import /usr/share/doc/rpmforge-release-0.2/RPM-GPG-KEY*


Circular argument, Craig, and that's what's confusing me. I presume you got them from the package, but -

Installing:
rpmforge-release i386 0.2-2.2.fc4.rf /home/anne/Downloads/rpmforge-release-0.2-2.2.fc4.rf.i386.rpm 14 k

Public key for rpmforge-release-0.2-2.2.fc4.rf.i386.rpm is not installed

so I don't have those keys because it didn't install. Do I have to install with something like '--nokeys' ?

----
hmmm...I don't recall ever having this issue but yeah, it would seem
that is an issue...is there a --nokeys option to rpm? I don't think so.
I think there is a --nosignature option though

Anne's trying to use yum to install the keys needed for yum, which as she says is a bit of a circular problem.

It can be fixed by using rpm directly to install the rpmforge-release package.

$ sudo rpm -Uvh /home/anne/Downloads/rpmforge-release-0.2-2.2.fc4.rf.i386.rpm
