Open up control centre & choose 'select where software packages are
downladed from when updating the system".

Click on "CD3", and then "edit". It should read:

URL:      removable://mnt/cdrom/media/main3

Relative path to hdlist:  ../../media/media_info/hdlist3.cz

(the second line may end with /synthesis.hdlist3.cz )

If it says anything else, change it.

Do the same for the other CDs.

(hdlist tells urmpi what files are at that source. It contains all the
information you see onscreen when you attempt to install a package using
urpmi. A smaller version - synthesis.hdlist - contains only basic
information. Either can be used).

See http://mandriva.vmlinuz.ca/bin/view/Main/UsingUrpmi  for more
information.
