Hmmm, how did you sync with cooker? what mirror are you using? in my software sources manager I put this URL: ftp://ftp.surfnet.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/Mandrake/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS. and gave it a name "cooker1". I then opened a konsole and typed "urpmi.update cooker1 then "urpmi --auto-select" It fails. Am I using the correct URL? if not, where is the correct URL? - -- David M.
