The only repositories I saw lshw was DAG and/or RPMForge, but there was only up to FC4-FC5. The meaning of this is if you want lshw installed you may have to go to their site (http://ezix.org/project/wiki/HardwareLiSter) download the source and compile it by yourself. Or (but I cannot guarantee it will work) go to DAG/RPMForge site, download the src.rpm and rebuild the rpm from source.
