!nkubus Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 yup along with this little site: urpmi.org/easyurpmi use the software management in your mandrake control center to install your softwares. hope this helps :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illogic-al Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 urpmi urpmi.setup this little beauty does it for you too :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illogic-al Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 never used it since i already had my sources set up. but it grabs a lit of mirrors from a database on the web and automatically writes the entries for urpmi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 I found the best way is to use a browser, find an ftp with the pkgs you want and that has hdlist.cz's and add via urpmi/commandline or the media source manager. EasyUrpmi is too quirky and not updated enough to keep up with the mirror changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
