Hi all!

As of 2008.1/cooker, one can configure the PLF medias fully
automatically with this command:

urpmi.addmedia --distrib --mirrorlist \
	'http://plf.zarb.org/mirrors/$RELEASE.$ARCH.list'

Urpmi will automatically select the closest mirror according to your
timezone. Backports are also added but ignored by default, you can use
drakrpm-edit-media to enable them.

In case you were unaware, the command for the official Mandriva sources
is here:
urpmi.addmedia --distrib --mirrorlist '$MIRRORLIST'
