That's because Stew doesn't have full access to update the repository.
He can upload rpms but not update any of the installer files.  Which
frankly is stupid.  The only time hdlist etc... gets updated is when
someone else at Mandrake does it.  The last time it happened nobody even
knew who did it.  I'm guessing someone in France decided to play with
cooker-ppc and redid it so they could do a network install.

I guess I'm frustrated with a number of things about Mandrake and ppc.
And none of them having anything to do with Stew.  He's doing a great
job considering.  However, if Mandrake really wants to do PPC they
really need to give Stew the resources to do it.  That means a new build
machine in Paris (the previous one is dead) and access to update the ppc
trees as he sees fit.
