ummmmm don't forget /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg ...... need to remove the
entries there or you will keep getting errors about not being able to
find disks when you are doing searches. best method
man urpmi.removemedia
HOWEVER whatever you do.... do not ... repeat do not ,type
urpmi.removemedia and hit return (without any args)... this is a lot
like typing rm -Rf * .... you never know what you will lose.
