I tried to upgrade by rebooting and using the installer. When I got the error I canceled the install and log onto the old sysem (mdk 10.0 OE) and found the correct hdlist files where they were supposed to be. I then rebooted and got the same error when I reached the "searching rpm database" section of the install.

I have three servers running mandrake 10 OE. I am attempting to install 10.1 from burned iso cds. The cd's worked fine in upgrading a 10.1 CE to 10.1 OE, so I know the CD is not the issue. When I run the install on the mdk 10 CE the install produce an error shortly after the install program tells me it is searching rpm database. The error is "hdlist not found". I search for hdlist on the HD and found four of them under /var/lib/urpmi/. These are not the original hdlist as I have updated them with easy URPMI. Solutions? Should I update the URPMI's again with a different FTP location? Should I URPMI the orginal CD's? How do I URPMI the orginal CD's? HELP? Kevin

okay, simple question (I hope). I used alt1 to install 10.0 official on a server where booting from the cd would not find the same cd to install. How can I discover which kernel is installed? Is there a simple command line phrase I can time to get this info? thanks Kevin moved from Installing Mandrake by spinynorman - welcome to the board! :)
