Unable to update medium; it will be automatically disabled.

 

Errors:

copy of [/var/cache/urpmi/partial/hdlist.Discovery DVD i586.cz] failed (file is suspiciously small)

nothing written in list file for "Discovery DVD i586"

How were you getting this error? Were you trying to add these media to the urpmi repositories?

 

I've usually had this when trying to add CD sources when I've pointed to the wrong directory for the hdlists.

Thanks, I fixed this problem by removing the repository and re adding.

But another problem stopped me cold. I can't load the install program.

IT does not matter. The install program will not load.
Do you mean the Install Software program (aka RPMDrake) that's available through the Mandriva Control Center? "The install program" is rather generic and could indicate several programs.
