Updating Mandrake 10 Community

Hi,

 

I have added 3 update servers to urpmi using easyurpmi, but when I get into Mandrake Update, it says there are no updates available! Surely this isnt the case. When I installed 9.2 Mandrake update immediately had about 50 megs of updates to install, and considering this is the 10.0 community version, I was expecting about the same. Am I doing something wrong?

I think your making the mistake of choosing MDK-10 and then picking a mirror from the update list.

Normally this is OK, but 10 is not official yet.

Cooker is the update source at the moment, so don't choose MDK-10 as the distro, choose cooker.

maby that will sound newbie, but on easyurpmi page:

 

www.urpmi.org/easyurpmi

 

thre is only a contrib and a main sources no updates sources, how do  i setup an update for cooker ?

After picking cooker as your version, click the "proceed to step two" button.

Then put a tick in "Main" and choose a mirror from the drop down list. Then click the "proceed to step three" button and the code will appear!

Here's one for you, change the word "main" to "cooker" or anything you want.

 

urpmi.addmedia main ftp://mandrake.redbox.cz/Mandrake-devel/cooker/i586/Mandrake/RPMS with ../base/hdlist.cz

OK, I've added the cooker Main and Contrib servers, but how to I perform an update? If I disable my previous empty MDK10 update sources and do Mandrake Update, it says I have no update sources enabled. So, how do I update the packages that are already on my machine from the Cooker servers?
