It would...but it'll take a long time, it has to build a whole set of cross-compilers, c-libraries, etc for the MediaMVP's PowerPC processor before it can even think about starting building all the libraries/programs that mvpmc needs, before eventually building mvpmc itself. Binaries of the latest dongle.bin for the MVPMC are at http://www.mvpmc.org/index.php?pg=downloads. > I've been trying to figure this out from the README that came > with the tarball as well as the WIKI and HOWTO.

There is no RPM package for Mandriva because, as I explained before, MVPMC provides no software which runs on the PC. It contains no custom server component. All you need is the binary dongle.bin from the main MVPMC homepage. This is served up to your MediaMVP using any TFTP server as described in the getting started guides on the wiki.
