I just tried SL 6.1.  I did a 'basic server' clean install.

The epel-389-ds-base repo (as recommended here
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Download ) contains a URL
which doesn't work (it's based off of $releasever, which on SL 6.1
is...6.1, not "6"!  RHEL 6.1 has been out since May, it'd be nice if
this was fixed.)

The URL in the file also isn't correct for the testing repo; it's
trying to access:

/repos/rmeggins/389-ds-base/testing/epel-6/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml

...and the correct URL, based on browsing the site in question, is:

/repos/rmeggins/389-ds-base/epel-6/testing/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml

Amazingly, finally, it all seems to have installed.
