Or.. put in an appropriate symlink, as I do. Originally, I had it @ /var/cache/urpmi/rpms, but with the new code that d/ls the files to partial and then moves them to rpms, that didn't work, so I symlinked the entire /var/cache/urpmi dir. One of these days I have to figure out how reiserfsresize works (does diskdrake handle that?), and realign my partitions, but I haven't done so yet. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
