Darren Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 I've just done a fresh install on a new hard drive. After clicking on Mandrakelinux Update I chose a mirror which doesnt seem to have any updates (it says i've either installed them or there are none avaliable) Can someone tell me how to change the server to a different one, there doesnt appear to be an option in that app Thanks for any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arctic Posted September 6, 2005 Report Share Posted September 6, 2005 In a terminal, type as root urpmi.removemedia -a in order to remove all buggy servers. Also type "man urpmi.removemedia" and "urpmi.removemedia --help" in a terminal in order to learn more about the options. Once your mirrors are cleared, you can add new ones with easyurpmi. PS: Check if you have activated all package types, bufixes, security patches and normal updates. AFAIK only bugfixes are activated by default. (dunno why) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
