I figured the urpmi.update cooker command out last night. Just tried it and only had a total of 186 MB to choose from. Bit slower connection this time though, only 286 KB/sec. Too many people crossing the Atlantic at this time of day I suppose. :-)
Any idea what to do about packages that aren't or are incorrectly signed? I keep ignoring them and not installing but it's probably just happening 'cause everything is changing so fast. I haven't tried the auto select command because I like to read the details about the things I'm downloading and installing since everything GNU/Linux is a learning experience for me. You'll notice that I actually remembered to send this only once (to the list and not both on-list and direct to you) this time. Seems all of your messages are triggering a direct response since the headers show a 'reply to:' your address instead of the list.
