OK do just what you did.. set up rpm drake or urpmi whichever you prefer, with a cooker mirror as a source.. then in RPM drake select to update that source so it have the most recent file list from the cooker mirror and then click the view tab that says flat list and then click the checkmark that is on the bar where it says packages / version / installed version .. that will select all packages that are avaliable.. then click the install / remove and it should do it. if you want to be able to watch the progress run rpmdrake from a x terminal.. or if you want to do this with urpmi just type urpmi.update "your cooker source name or blank for a list" urpmi --auto-select 'this will download all avaliable updates.' that should do it > > I would be happy if this was documented somewhere, and just > get the url. > > keld
