But, the hdlists file was wrong: hdlist.cz Mandrake/RPMS Installation CD hdlist.src.cz ../SRPMS Installation sources hdlist2.cz Mandrake/RPMS2 Contrib CD hdlist2.src.cz ../contrib/SRPMS Contrib sources hdlist3.cz Mandrake/RPMS3 Jpackage.org hdlist3.src.cz ../contrib/jpackage/SRPMS Jpackage.org sources I see it has subsequently been fixed: hdlist.cz Mandrake/RPMS Installation CD Pity though, it would have been nice to have Contrib and JPackage available to users doing FTP installs directly after installation. The other question is: 1)Has Nanar's page been updated for this 2)I guess --distrib won't pull in contrib and JPackage any more :-( Regards, Buchan - -- |--------------Another happy Mandrake Club member--------------| Buchan Milne Mechanical Engineer, Network Manager Cellphone * Work +27 82 472 2231 * +27 21 8828820x202 Stellenbosch Automotive Engineering http://www.cae.co.za GPG Key http://ranger.dnsalias.com/bgmilne.asc 1024D/60D204A7 2919 E232 5610 A038 87B1 72D6 AC92 BA50 60D2 04A7 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE/kQ2BrJK6UGDSBKcRAuXMAKC7573QGkA7tSOQoZwwrq4fh8i/ewCfaRE9 oe6l9wHaPJ5N6KRpQAdGm/A= =aQT+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
