I'm hoping someone will either have a workaround or a suggestion for me.

I'm trying to get arcconf and the firmware updater for an IBM SAS RAID 
adapter. Sadly it seems the binaries that IBM supply are 32bit only and 
require /lib/ld-linux.so.2

So, I figure just to try 'yum install glibc.i686' - however that doesn't 
go according to plan:

# yum install glibc.i686
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile

  You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
  You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Am I attempting to do this the wrong way or is something else playing up 
here?
