From Cooker To Stable

Mandriva 2009.1 Spring just became stable.

So, naturally, I need to stop using cooker updates, because I really don't want to start using the new cooker yet.

So I need to change all my update repositories. There is, fortunately, an easy way to do this. Open up MCC, go to Software Management, and click on "Configure media sources for install and update."

Delete everything there.

Then, browse to easyurpmi, select the current stable version and architecture (2009.1 & i586 in this case), then scroll to the bottom to the "Advanced" area. Click on "Refresh commands." Finally, open a konsole, "su -", and paste those two lines into it.

Done.

Easy.
