If so, either your local mirror, or the mirror you are syncing from is screwed up... Both main mirrors have it: $ rsync -av ftp.uninett.no::Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS/boot* -rw-r--r-- 18425 2003/09/05 11:17:27 bootloader-utils-1.6-1mdk.i586.rpm $ rsync -av ftp.sunet.se::Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS/boot* -rw-r--r-- 18425 2003/09/05 11:17:27 bootloader-utils-1.6-1mdk.i586.rpm Thomas
