To install Google Chrome via yum you need to jump through few hoops, but once you find the url it is quite easy to do so.
For 32bit version:
yum localinstall --nogpgcheck -y https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_i386.rpm
For 64bit version
yum localinstall --nogpgcheck -y https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm
thanx so much!!
