dydige Posted June 24, 2003 Report Share Posted June 24, 2003 I've seen a lot of refrence to mdkextras, which is suppose to be found at http://mdkextras.by-a.com/, but it seems to be non-functioning. Are there any other places I can add as a source to install from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoopy Posted June 24, 2003 Report Share Posted June 24, 2003 There's plenty of mirrors for sources, but it depends on what your looking for. You could start by adding this site's rpms into your database (Downloads button at top of page) or the official Mandrake list at: http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/ftp.php3 These will point to the ISO images, but work your way throught the tree to find the proper RPM folders to use for source. The site you listed looks similar to board member DOlson's site: http://mdkxp.by-a.com/ http://icculus.org/~dolson/ http://icculus.org/~dolson/mdkxp/ All these seem to be down at the moment too. Maybe he knows something about the one your looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramfree17 Posted June 25, 2003 Report Share Posted June 25, 2003 by-a.com is owned by afrosheen (who sadly is hibernating from his cyberlife here in the user boards for a very long time now). i think the reason the server went down is because his connection got cut-off or something. it was supposed to be back up when he gets E-1 connection but i dont know what happened. i hope one day afrosheen will grace our boards once more (he has an account here but i havent seen a post from him in ages) as he is one of the very first linux gurus that i have met (even i have to say that garu will pale by comparison ). ciao!
