Or,
x86_64: http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/cern/slc6X/x86_64/yum/updates/repoview/sl-release.html
2. Open package with file roller, and extract files.

slc6-updates.repo
4. Copy these files to your system, open terminal as root in the [package] /etc/yum.repos.d/ location, and copy files:
root# cp slc6-extras.repo slc6-os.repo slc6-testing.repo slc6-updates.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/
