rpm -Uvh http://www.openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.4.7/fedora-repository/ 
openafs-repository-1.4.7-1.src.rpm
yum install openafs-client

(In your particular case, the problem is that you're trying to  
install a kernel module built for the i686 architecture, with a  
kernel that isn't i686 - its possible it's either i586, or x86_64)
