Not having success moving chromium repo


I found the chromium project here http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Chromium

I downloaded the repo to my downloads folder. I am trying to move it to /etc/yum/repos.d but its not working for me.

Does anyone know why this doesn't work?
Code:
[root@localhost yum]# mv /home/sayth/Downloads/fedora-chromium-stable.repo /etc/yum/repos.d
[root@localhost yum]# yum install chromium
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
Setting up Install Process
No package chromium available.
Error: Nothing to do
[root@localhost yum]#

..should be:
Code:
cp /home/sayth/Downloads/fedora-chromium-stable.repo /etc/yum.repos.d/
You may also need to check that it's enabled :-
Code:
grep enabled /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-chromium-stable.repo

Yeah that was the trick copy works better than move.
