Mandriva Updates [solved]

[manf0001]

I'm using Mandriva 2007 PowerPack, and I've configured urpmi, and I can install other packages just fine. I'm woundering if when I install via the ftp sites configured in urmpi does it download it to my computer? And if so where. I'd like to know so that I can copy them to a cd or dvd so that I can run the updates with out using the net all the time, just in case I have to reinstall on my laptop and don't have access to the net.

 

Thanks

You will find the info you need in this thread,

half way through page 3 will be what you need, as things seem to have changed a little from Man2006 to Man2007, so the earlier info will not permanently save the files under Man2007. When you make the changes, just do a couple of trial runs to be sure that it works for you, and you have correctly apply the changes. Wouldn't want to do all the updates etc, only to find that they have disappeared. :o
