I just spent some time on this so I though I would chime in. Rpmdrake is
a front end to urpmi. Urpmi will look at the hdlist either locally or on
a mirror. Urpmi keeps it's config file in /etc/urpmi and its database in
/var/lib/urpmi. I already had the files created, since I did an ftp
installation, but still had a problem. Rpmdrake would load, but it
didn't show anything. I ended up running two scripts, urpmi.removemedia
and urpmi.addmedia to redo the files. (The system has man pages on both
scripts.) After doing that, rpmdrake was able to talk to the ftp mirror.
