I had a similar problem last night. From a clean install two or three days
ago, I opened rpmdrake to update to the latest packages. The only source
was the one automagically added during install. It kept telling me it
wouldn't work, so I tried to add a new source (/mnt/nfs), but again it
wouldn't take. So I checked urpmi.cfg, and it read (bear with me, going
from memory here):
Installation\ CD\ (nfs1) file://mnt/nfs with ../base/hdlist.cz
Which, I figured out, isn't even the right format (never used urpmi from the
command line until last night). Adding a source using urpmi.addmedia from
the command line put in the correctly formatted entries. It would seem
something went south during the part of the installation process where it
creates the config file.
