If you are on 9.1, look at mandrake/updates/9.1/i586/RPMS and you will see a slew of update RPMS and a file called synthesis.hdlist.cz. That file will allow you to setup your cd as a urpmi source. Burn that whole directory to cd.
Once you get the cd, do something like urpmi.addmedia updates file://mnt/cdrom with synthesis.hdlist.cz and then urpmi --auto-select and all packages that need updating should be done for you automatically. Hope this helps. -- /g "Outside of a dog, a man's best friend is a book, inside a dog it's too dark to read" -Groucho Marx
