                                 which use the GRUB2 bootloader (e.g. more recent Debian/Ubuntu
                                 derivatives) are not currently supported and will not be recognised. One
                                 possible solution for this is to follow the steps explained here <a class="xref" href="setupBootloaderExpert.html#addingGRUB2system" title="Adding a GRUB2 based system manually">the section called &#8220;Adding a GRUB2 based system
                                    manually&#8221;</a> before installing Mageia next to such a
                                 system, however there is no guarantee.

                                 already installing Mageia without having taken those steps, (and do not
                                 already know the GRUB2 version and/or it's root partition) then install
                                 the Mageia bootloader in the root partition for now (see next section),
                                 and inspect your GRUB2 based system after rebooting at the end of the
                                 installation. Note that you will not yet be able to boot Mageia, however
                                 you will be able to use the Mageia install DVD to perform a quick
                                 "upgrade install" at a later date to correctly install the bootloader to
                                 the MBR.

                   use an existing bootloader then you will need to remember to STOP at the
                   summary page during the installation and click the Bootloader
                   <span class="guibutton">Configure</span> button, which will allow you to change
                   the bootloader install location.

            <p><a name="setupBootloaderBeginner-pa47"></a>Do not select a
                   device e.g."sda", or you will overwrite your existing MBR. You must select
                   the root partition that you chose during the partitioning phase earlier
                   e.g. sda7.

                   is a device, sda7 is a partition.

                   procedure for adding your Mageia system to an existing bootloader is
                   beyond the scope of this help, however in most cases it will involve
                   running the relevant bootloader installation program which should detect
                   and add it automatically. See the documentation for the operating system
                   in question.
