The live disk would not give a desktop unless, first, booting to 3 and choosing the vesa driver (nVidia card) and, if installed or with an ftp install, the installation to hard disk would not boot except to the dracut: prompt, limited shell command set, / not mounted, unable to mount what partitions I could see with ls /dev, could not fix.

There was one hard disk drive on one of the motherboard sata controllers that was not showing up for 2011 or some other livecd distros, so I moved it off that controller but it was just a data disk, nothing of the installation was put there. I see the report of a kernel driver bug with the earlier kernels but idk. This machine has been working fine with the earlier Mandriva releases. What I did was a fresh net install of 2010.2, checked that all packages were up to date, and immediately ran the 'beta' update script at the wiki:
http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Upgrading_M ... 10_to_2011
That script went smoothly and I was able to boot 2011.
So, now I have another issue with rpm, it will not install from a url, ftp or http (urpmi works). I have looked at google and bugzilla but don't see this. Have you heard of it? Thanks.
