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?

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/
