This can happen when you install RPMForge or other repos with the wrong architecture and here's how you fix it (simply uninstalling won't usually fix it):
solution
yum clean all
yum -y install openvpn
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, presto
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* base: mirror.its.sfu.ca
* extras: centos.mirror.nexicom.net
* rpmforge: mirror.cpsc.ucalgary.ca
* up........
It's not as simple as "yum install" as you can see below and it doesn't stop there.
yum install php53
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* rpmforge: mirror.us.leaseweb.net
* extras: centos.mirror.rafal.ca
* updates: centos.mirror.nexicom.net
* base: centos.mirror.nexicom.net
* addons: centos.mirror.nexicom.net
Setting up Install Process........
I flashed an LSI Logic firmware to it and it broke the BIOS (cannot do Ctrl+R) for booting purposes but allows other functionality to work normally.
I tried downgrading to a Dell firmware for Perc 6i but it won't work, not even with MegaCli
