I have tried to do some mandrake update for the first time and have 
experienced this (upgrading MR7.2):
1)getting ftp servers goes fine
2)getting list of updates goes fine
3) downloading files goes fine
3) preparing for install goes vvery slow
4) installing freeses everything, takes very long time (6 hrs for 10 update 
items - 15 MB of downloaddata) monitor goes completely black, at the end.

5) After reboot everything seems fine and (pehaps) I have been successfully 
updated !?

I would just ask if this is normal procedure for mandrake update service to 
go like this, or I have to do it otherwise (I do it like the tutorial on the 
mandrake.com site.
thanks gunner
