Welcome Troy,

What sort of errors are you seeing with "yum install spacewalk"? I installed the
server yesterday using the instructions list on the wiki:
https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToInstall

FYI I had a fresh RHEL 5.2 (i386) install which I had registered to RHN and
fully updated it. Worked like a champ.

Let us know if you run into any trouble.
