yes you are right  mirror.pacific.net.au dropped 10.1 a while ago.
so I was using the others that have 10.1  ie: iinet or ale.
both seem strange to me today.

/linux/Mandriva-Linux/official/updates/2006.0/main_updates
all read 2004 ?

and the mirror.pacific media/main maybe correct for the Main at 13th 
April 2005 but not the 
mirror.pacific.net.au/linux/Mandriva-Linux/official/updates/10.2/main_updates
the last update I see is Tues 28th June 2005 ...   that cant be right 
because I updated my 10.2 machine from this site yesterday with more 
recent updates than that.

also please have a look at the ftp.ii.net  /pub/knoppix 
 and see the 4.0.2  2005 CD reads 2004 to me.


 mandriva updates for 2006
