 You are correct.  I had an rsync running while I sent that message.  Not 2

 went down from 17 Mb to 4Mb, isn't it?
 

it was more around 11-12 MB. But anyway, 4MB was buggy, t'is fixed now.



[Cooker] hdlist is empty!! Please fix asap!!

2000-01-08 Thread Brian J. Murrell

Looking around on various archives, I see that
.../MandrakeCooker/oxygen/Mandrake/base/hdlist is empty.

This of course screws up tools like urpmi.

Can we please have this corrected ASAP?

Thanx,
b.

No, no luck, and noone seems to be addressing the issue yet... still
waiting on it..

 windows it shows an error to the effect that it can't open or find a

 Anyone had better luck?

hd.img works fine (well, approximately fine) here.My usual mirror
(rpmfind.net) delivers a /base/hdlist file 11,768,596 bytes in size, depslist
is 96,920 in size, so you probably have an incomplete download.

Use mirror or rsync and repeat it until nothing new appears.  rsync is 
better, because it has an option to delete files on your mirror which are no 
longer on the server, but before the first use of rsync you need to run 
mirror -T ... to get the timestamps synchronised.

Here's my rsync script.  Alter what applies to you, including the last line
according to where your mirror is located.   The trailing slashes are
important.

#!/bin/bash
echo
echo hdc11 must be mounted to /mnt/local/cdrimage  !!
echo
rsync -vrltu --rsh ssh --delete \
rsync://rufus.w3.org/linux/MandrakeCooker/oxygen/ \
/mnt/local/cdrimage/oxygen/

hmm,

I use wget from rpmfind.net.  hdlist is 4535k depslist is 68k.  I looked on the
primary mirrors and they have the same filesize.  Is it possible you got them
before they got trashed?  What is the size of your mdkinst_stage2.gz?

Something wrong with hdlist.
I have just downloaded the locales and Mesa, usually I stop fmirror with
ctrl-c, run genhdlist, re-run fmirror.

fmirror delete the partial file in.hdlist and reports that the mirroring is
finished. Now fmirror reports new hdlist size.

Bye
Alessandro

 Why you don't create a script like this :
 
 #!/bin/sh
 fmirror -f MirorrCookerWithExcludeGenhdlist
 cd /path_to_cooker_rpms/
 ./misc/gendhlist .
 
 Each time you relaunch your mirror you regenerate the hdlist.

Thank you but the hdlist on sunsite.se and rpmfind have a different size from

For me sunet.se ( not sunsite ) worked well.
I have only an ISDN 64K connection but the frame rate is stable al 7.3k.
I also have a batch file for rpmfind ( slow ) but the results is the
same.

 So that was the problem uhh?
 
 I tried re-intaling cooker several times during this weekend,
 now re-running fmirror and the only thing downloading is
 hdlist:  Getting file 'Mandrake/base/hdlist' size = 11536072
 
 I was getting package rhs-hwdiag at line 12 does not exist
  midgard.php at line 1657 does not exist

Here is the same. Downloaded yesterday :-(

Anyway I think that the hdlist can be generated with genhdlist.
Every time I go to ftp.sunet.se the hdlist is new... 11MB !!!
The third time I have tried to interrupt the transfer with ctrl-c.
genhdlist /mirror/cooker and run fmirror again
The hdlist is now the same on ftp.sunet.se.

I got one rhs-hwdiag and two midgard errors. The installation still works.

I have an urgent question, the boot img runs the old instalation and the readme
file says nothing about Panoramix !!! 
On Mandrake website there is no info about this and I don't want trash other
700 MB CD just for trying.
The Panoramix boot img is gi_xxx ?
At this time the image size is  large for standard CD

Many thanks
Alessandro

yeah you can always regenerate it instead of downloading it.
