I know this list isn't tech support, but I have never been able t grasp
urpmi. I can add an ftp sote, say rpmfind.net, and have it update me from
there to cooker? The hdlists are very large aren't they? I'm living in the
country now so I only get 28800 if it connects at all. And downloding a
new hdlist every day would suck...
