easyurpmi is update for mandrake ?
The Mandrake Update program is what you use to update Mandrake (see menu->System->Configuration->Packaging). The first time its run it'll ask you to choose a mirror to get updates from.
The easyurpmi site lists the mirrors for all the repositories for Mandrake/Mandriva (including the updates). You should setup the repositories using that site as the 3 install CDs you download don't have the full set of software on them.
