I am running Centos 6.0 (Final) , the i386 version.
I am trying my hardest to get a decent LAMP Server running, with phpMyAdmin.
I can get everything installed just fine, MySQL, Apache2 (httpd), PHP 5.x, etc..., but when I get to reading some tutorials on installing phpMyAdmin, I fail miserably. Each tutorial I read mentions enabling the EPEL/REMI repo.. As soon as I add this repo I am not able to use yum anymore.
I continue to get this error message
[root@username tmp]# yum update

It's driving me insane. I am using a VPS so everytime this happens I am easily able to restart from scratch, but after so many times with the same results I have no clue where I am going wrong.
