Try to continue anyway? (y/N)

how do I resolve?

Do I delete the files that are referred to in the error messages?
What about
invalid MD5SUM file (downloaded from http://mirrors.kernel.org/mageia/distri ... media_info)?

I'd guess the mirror was doing a sync, or your mirror's lagging. Give it another few hours, or try another mirror. That error message is simply saying the files that urpmi is expecting aren't the ones on the mirror. So it wont download/install them.

Hello Garthhh

I note that you have some "testing"and "backports"enabled.
Unless you are into testing or absolutely need the latest packages, these should be disabled.
You also appear to have multiple sets of repos enabled.
Ideally you should have one set of:

Code: Select all

"Core Release"
"Core Updates"
"Nonfree Release"
"Nonfree Updates"
"Tainted Release"
"Tainted Updates"
"Core 32bit Release"
"Core 32bit Updates"
"Nonfree 32bit Release"
"Nonfree 32bit Updates"
"Tainted 32bit Release"
"Tainted 32bit Updates"

and then any specific repos i.e medium "google-chrome".

if attempting to install updates later fails, you may need to choose a specific mirror.

how do I resolve?
Do I delete the files that are referred to in the error messages?
What about
invalid MD5SUM file (downloaded from http://mirrors.kernel.org/mageia/distri ... media_info)?

Don't delete nothing you will only break your system.

Md5sum error is that mirror is not synced fully yet you may need to wait 1-2 hour and update then system.

Thanks to this post here I was able to fix my problems with updates, too! I had selected 'core Release2' and other secondary non-free and tainted repos and was getting the same issue with invalid md5sum as well as inability to access medium. I deselected the secondary repos and things look ship shape now!

Thanks for all the replies

I unchecked all the Media Sources
picked a new mirror, after consulting http://mirrors.mageia.org/status
checked
core release & updates
non-free release & updates
Tainted release & updates
also the 32 bit of the above

updated completely
