The thing is, it does have an hdlist. look: [byron@icculus base]$ ls -l hd* -rw-r--r-- 1 byron byron 6275177 Sep 8 05:33 hdlist2.cz -rw-r--r-- 1 byron byron 14908406 Sep 8 05:32 hdlist.cz hdlist2.cz is the hdlist for contrib I sent this in last week: If the symbolic link is set up correctly on the server you can do: uprmi.addmedia contrib ftp://PATH_TO/i586/Mandrake/RPMS2 with ../base/hdlist2.cz this will give you access to contribs with urpmi/rpmdrake. (at least for me it works great)
