It wants hdlist.cz in the base subdirectory.  The syntax for rpmfind.net 
would be:

# urpmi.addmedia 
ftp:rpmfind.net/linux/MandrakeCooker/cooker/cooker/Mandrake/RPMS with 
../base/hdlist.cz

Remember to state the path of base relative to RPMS.  I got sidetracked 
so I haven't played much with it yet.
