Hi
I've just tried the rsync method with urpmi and got the following
results:
------------------------------
# urpmi.addmedia cooker rsync://ftp.sunet.se/pub/os/Linux
/distributions/mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS/ with
../base/hdlist.cz
added medium cooker

And it just carries on and on, repeating the error
If I run the command manually, I get the same error (partial transfer)
If I take the -e ssh away from the command, and run it manually, it
works fine (probably because ftp.sunet.se doesn't support ssh rsync)
