Someone asked the same question as you on the Expert list, and Vincent Danen
replied:

This is because cpio wants /sbin/rmt and tar is installed prior to
update-alternatives, so /sbin/rmt never exists.

New packages are on their way up so if you wait an hour or so then
fire up urpmi.update you should be able to get the new packages that
resolve this.

I think that reply came through a few hours ago, so maybe all will be well if
you try again.

Thanks Anne.  I'll try on Friday when I get home.  I haven't tried logging in remotely yet so I'll just wait until then.
