MandrakeUpdate simply does not work for me on 9.0; this is on a new, freshly installed ThinkPad -- installed 8.2 and used new 9.0 upgrade procedure. Using ethereal, I can see MU grab the list of mirrors; then it reports a failure, yet it does not even send a single packet on the network...
Trying to issue the command (from MU Log) manually gives: # /usr/sbin/urpmi.addmedia --update update_source ftp://ftp.stealth.net/pub/mirrors/ftp.mandrake .com/Mandrake/updates/9.0/RPMS/ with ../base/hdlist.cz unable to take medium "Updates for Mandrake Linux 8.2 (ftp1u)" into account as no list file [/var/lib/urpmi/list.Updates for Mandrake Linux 8.2 (ftp1u)] exists medium "update_source" already exists SSM only shows the first 3 entries selected (CD[1-3]) I've ftp'ed most of the 9.0 updates and manually installed them; so there is no problem with my networking.
