When you have 3 or 4 machine to install, it is very different ;-) As I made dozens of install each year, I have made a mirror of Mandriva updates on my server. Then I need to add my mirrors (with a script) and to remove them after. This save me a geat amount of time. Now, I don't like Mandriva 2011 and I need to rebuild a lot of machines with Mageia. IMO, it is possible to create a CD (or a DVD) with the tree of updates and a script which adds the CD, updates the system and removes the CD. Here is the scripts used to have a mirror of updates and add-media.sh. I use them for Mandriva. It can be a beginning. I wish to do better for Mageia. How to unselect the updates in the list of mirrors? Perhaps renaming and saving urpmi.cfg? Is this clean? -- Pierre Jarillon - http://pjarillon.free.fr/ Vice-président de l'ABUL : http://abul.org/ Microsoft est à l'informatique ce que McDonald est à la gastronomie.
