Files ending in mdk.src.rpm are source code packages, wich need to be compiled
in order to use. If you are unfamilliar with compiling the you are better off
using the binary rpm's, meaning an rpm ending in mdk.i586.rpm or simularly
mdk.i386.rpm. The i386 means intel 386 or better processor, i486 is for an
intel 486 or better and i586 is for a pentium or pentium compatible such as an
AMD K6 or K6-2. So it is best to upgrade with the mdk.i586.rpm's if you have a
pentium/pentium compatible or better.,
