Mandriva Media Machine

The other day we built a multimedia computer for the shop . I chose Mandriva Linux because I wanted to provide volunteers with a different experience from the typical Ubuntu Linux they're used to. And it was an experience for me. I've worked quite a bit with Red Hat/Fedora, SuSE, Debian, and Ubuntu, but not so much with Mandriva. I actually found myself a bit lost when it came to package management. I was unfamiliar with urpmi. So I did a bit of research and found a few interesting links. See the story I wrote here: http://www.charlesmccolm.com/content/helpful-mandriva-linux-links
