I have 7.0, have updated urpmi & RpmDrake to the versions that come with
7.1 + deps (rpm,rpmtools,popt - IIRC). Wget is installed.
I am trying to get the packages at:
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/linux/mandrake/7.1/Mandrake/RPMS/
Which is what I enter in "add location of packages-->HTTP"
For Location of hdlist if I leave it at:
../base/hdlist.cz2
I get (pasted from konsole):
[root@localhost /root]# rpmdrake
--21:22:12--

If I look at /var/lib/urpmi/hdlist.http_1.cz2
it is a html file containing:
"Index of /pub/linux/mandrake/7.1/Mandrake/RPMS"
& hyperlinks to them.....
URL of /base/hdlist(s) is:
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/linux/mandrake/7.1/Mandrake/base/
& in it there is:
hdlist 11-Mar-2000 16:08 13.8M
hdlist.cz2 18-May-2000 03:06 3.4M
hdlist2.cz2 18-May-2000 03:08 1.2M
hdlist3.cz2 18-May-2000 03:08 382k
hdlist4.cz2 18-May-2000 03:09 515k
hdlists 18-May-2000 03:09 1k
Can anyone tell me what I've got wrong ?
TIA
