c0d3-m0nk3y 0 Posted July 21, 2005 I have installed Mandrake 10.2 and all is cool except that during installation I did not select to have all rpm's copied to hdd - I now want to have all the rpm's on disk so I can reinstall any rpms remotely via ssh (I travel alot with work).... Is there an easy way to achieve this? Thanks. Share this post Link to post
Silver-Dagger 0 Posted July 22, 2005 Yes I have done this with my laptop. I did this with the DVD but it should work with the cd version also. Here is what you need to do: copy the media folder on the CD(s) to /var/ftp/pub next issue the following: urpmi.addmedia "Installation (cdrom1)" file://var/ftp/pub/media/main with ../media_info/hdlist1.cz urpmi.addmedia "Installation (cdrom2)" file://var/ftp/pub/media/firmwares with ../media_info/hdlist2.cz urpmi.addmedia "Installation (cdrom3)" file://var/ftp/pub/media/modules with ../media_info/hdlist3.cz urpmi.addmedia "Installation (cdrom4)" file://var/ftp/pub/media/dkms with ../media_info/hdlist4.cz urpmi.addmedia "Installation (cdrom5)" file://var/ftp/pub/media/plugins with ../media_info/hdlist5.cz urpmi.addmedia "Installation (cdrom6)" file://var/ftp/pub/media/contrib with ../media_info/hdlist6.cz Share this post Link to post
