I'm a newbie and I'm just trying to get my mind around upgrading with
mandrake. 

I've just got a ibm 600e laptop and want to put drake 8.1 on it but i
dont have the cds with me at the moment. Apparently 8.0 has an issue
with the trackpoint mouse so i installed 7.2

What I want to know is:

If I add a path to the 8.1 RPMs (from the cd) on another machine to
urpmi's sources and then do an auto-select is it effectly doing the same
thing as if I were to boot with the cds and choose uprgrade. Will it
also overide a custom kernel with the new binary one?

Thanks in advance

Cheers
