Lennart Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 As if the communication between user and os isn't hard enough. Anybody who knows what this means? I'm trying to update Mandrake 10rc to mandrake 10c. Changed the update source to the cooker's address. Downloading starts and one thinks to have it knicked only to get this gabberish at the end of the download. Did I do something wrong, is it just nagging, bug or what? anyone who can help?

Guest anon Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 I have never tried adding cooker as the update source in MCC. so never had that problem. Try this though, remove the update source and add cooker as a new source......not an update source. Something like this in a consol (su to root. and replace url with your favorite cooker mirror) urpmi.addmedia cooker ftp://mandrake.redbox.cz/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz EDIT After you have updated your source from cooker, don't try to update the whole system in the Mandrake control centre. Boot to a prompt and do it this way. urpmi --auto-select Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest anon Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 I get the same errors with that site too. Their server may be down. Try another site, you will have to remove the cooker name, or call it something else like main or anything. urpmi.addmedia main ftp://sunsite.mff.cuni.cz/OS/Linux/Dist/Mandrake/mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz For a list of all sites, use this handy app http://urpmi.org/easyurpmi/index.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
