from program crash: no
Launched by drakbug client: yes
Mandrake Kernel: 2.4.19-13mdk

User-submitted details: Well I already did that above so I'll 
copy and paste...

Hello. When installing from hd.img boot disk. Mounted iso 
images and extracted contents to /mnt/files/i586 folder 
first. /mnt/files is a seperate partition (/dev/hdd5). During 
install (expert, upgrade packages only), the /dev/hdd5 
partition is mounted as /mnt/hd (I think) Consequently, when 
the three disks are set up in the Software Manager, the path 
is set as /mnt/hd/i586/Mandrake... instead of 
/mnt/files/i586/Mandrake... So installer needs to check where 
the install partition is normally mounted from /etc/fstab and 
use that path instead when setting up the urpmi database. 
BTW, installing from the iso images directly worked, but it 
never asked me for the image names of the othere 2 iso's so 
it only installed 1 disks worth of updates. :-)
