You said (I think it was you, anyway) that yum didn't work properly
in the x86_64 distribution.
So what command did you give exactly which caused confusion?
If the message was that the packages you were trying to install
were incompatible,
that seems to me a kindness on the part of yum rather than an error.
Were the packages all from official FC-4 x86_64 repositories?
