Re: [newbie] updates mdk 10
SInce easyurpmi doesn't have updated mirrors and I'm new to this urpmi thing, I just want to confirm: Would this be the path to the new Stable branch that I should be setting up as Main? ftp://ftp.proxad.net/pub/Distributions_Linux/mandrake/Mandrakelinux/official/current/i586/Mandrake/RPMS Updates are easy to find or urpmi, but not Main (which is the same as core and stable, I guess) Clicking through the FTP site shows a couple of possibilities, so I just want to make sure this is the correct one, before going forward. And I assume what I'd enter in to the console would be: urpmi.addmedia main ftp://ftp.proxad.net/pub/Distributions_Linux/mandrake/Mandrakelinux/official/current/i586/Mandrake/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz Wasn't there a layout of the new mirror structure released somewhere. I'm going back and can't seem to find it.

Re: [newbie] updates mdk 10
Okay, I just checked the following for updates: Official Branch: urpmi.addmedia main ftp://ftp.proxad.net/pub/Distributions_Linux/mandrake/Mandrakelinux/official/current/i586/Mandrake/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz There was nothing to update on my computer, so I removed Main (which I think I'm supposed to do if I'm going to add Community). I then added and checked Community. Community Branch: urpmi.addmedia community ftp://ftp.proxad.net/pub/Distributions_Linux/mandrake/Mandrakelinux/devel/community/i586/Mandrake/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz There was nothing to update here, either. Both said, Everything already installed. After adding these sources, in both cases I did: urpmi.update -a The only updates I've done since loading the 10.0 CD ISO's are the few files that were security patches. Shouldn't I have at least gotten updates when I checked the Community branch or does this seem right to people? Rory Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] updates mdk 10
And so in the new tree, does this folder in the Community section become the equivalent of CD4? ftp://ftp.proxad.net/pub/Distributions_Linux/mandrake/Mandrakelinux/devel/community/contrib/i586 It's basically the same as this folder in the Cooker section (without the bleeding-edge updates), right? ftp://ftp.proxad.net/pub/Distributions_Linux/mandrake/Mandrakelinux/devel/cooker/contrib/i586 Apologies for the basic yet particular questions. Just trying to figure out my way around and what I should be adding. Thanks, Rory Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
