urpmi.addmedia 90Main ftp://$MIRROR/$MAINPATH with ../base/hdlist.cz uprmi.addmedia 90Contrib ftp://$MIRROR/$CONTRIBPATH with \ ../../i586/Mandrake/base/hdlist2.cz Substitute whatever mirror you choose for $MIRROR and substitute the correct paths to 9.0/i586/Mandrake/RPMS and 9.0/contrib/RPMS for that particular mirror. If you're trying to do it with the CDROM: urpmi.addmedia CD1 removable:/mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz urpmi.addmedia CD2 removable:/mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS2 with ../base/hdlist2.cz urpmi.addmedia CD2 removable:/mnt/cdrom/Mandrake/RPMS3 with ../base/hdlist3.cz The odd thing is that you just leave CD1 in the drive for all of the three commands.
