I don't know how you connect to the internet but these hdlist.cz files
are about 27 mb in size if you are on dial-up then i can imagine it
taking one hour.

Im using one of the french mirrors and I just checked and found
mldonkey-gui so I think the mirror you selected must be messed up,
which has been happening a lot lately :-(
The second stage at easy urpmi when it asks you to select mirrors there
are drop down lists to select the mirrors of your choice. You may be
able to find a closer/faster mirror that the one you have selected.
Also you need to select a main and contrib source as well as the plf
one. Main and contrib are where you will find the official mandrake
stuff.
