I am aware of this problem and workarounf and _this_ problem is fixed in current kernel (in short, bad interaction between supermount and the rest of kernel caused long delays on file close - 4-5 seconds. So scanning large number of files was slow). I mean different problem (there was a bug report in Bugzilla about it but I forgot the number). Urpmi needs much time to check for correct media, _before_ it even started to copy or install files. I do not know what happens but I see that supermounted media is being accessed several times before urpmi finally asks to insert correct media. As usual, nothing fatal but bery annoying. cheers I hope you do not mind Cc to cooker. -andrey
