where do the files go when you download them using urpmi? I would like to start making update cds, using rw discs, so I can keep adding items. Or is there a better way to make update cds? Also is ther anything else I may need in order to get it as a source for updates? My plan is to use one machine to get all the updates, then have the ability to updating my other machine without having to redownload all of those file again.

By default, urpmi clears those files out once they are installed. If you want to keep those files, you can do:

 

urpmi.update -a

urpmi --auto --auto-select --noclean

 

Then the rpms will be left in /var/cache/urpmi/rpms

This is assuming you have your urpmi sources correctly configured to grab from the web. You can do that here:
