Mandriva - apt-get or zypper equivalent?

Anyone know what the Mandriva equivalent for Debian's apt-get or Suse's zypper command is? Thanks

Mandriva uses a program similar to SuSE's yast2 for configuration and software management. Packages are RPM's so they can be manipulated with RPM tools. I think the configuration program is called Drakconfig or something similar.

It's called urpmi. Go to http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/ to set it up. Once done you need to load anything else
