Installing updates frm console in Mandrake

[martinlundwall]

How do I download and update security updates from the console?

I don't have an X server so I can't use the normal Mandrake Update.
Should I use urpmi or is there any other program that updates?

Greetings,

Yes, use urpmi from console ( be sure to su root first )

** New **

The coolest easiest way to get updates is to go to
http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/

Double check your distribution, click and pick a Sources Main and a Sources Update mirror - copy the results into a console ( still as su ) running urpmi - its so easy, I was able to get it, you will too

Enjoy
