+ <para>This screen gives you the list of already recognized repositories. You
+ can add other sources for packages, like an optical disc or a remote
+ source. The source selection determines which packages will be available for
+ selection during the next steps.</para>

+ <para>Selecting a mirror or specifying a URL (very first entry). By
+ selecting a mirror, you have access to the selection of all repositories
+ managed by Mageia, like the Nonfree , the Tainted repositories and the

+ <para>If you are updating a 64 bit installation which may contain some 32
+ bit packages, it is advised to use this screen to add an online mirror by
+ ticking one of the Network protocols here. The 64 bit DVD iso only
+ contains 64 bit and noarch packages, it will not be able to update the 32
+ bit packages. However, after adding an online mirror, installer will find
+ the needed 32 bit packages there.</para>
