Available Bootloaders
Grub2
Grub2 on Legacy MBR/GPT systems
GRUB2 (with or without graphical menu) will be used exclusively as the
bootloader for a Legacy/MBR or Legacy/GPT system.
By default, a new bootloader will be written into either the MBR (Master
Boot Record) of your first hard drive or in the BIOS boot partition.
Grub2-efi on UEFI systems
GRUB2-efi or rEFInd may be used as the bootloader for a UEFI system.
By default, a new bootloader (Grub2-efi) will be written into the ESP (EFI
System Partition).
If there are already UEFI-based operating systems installed on your computer
(Windows 8 for example), the Mageia installer will detect the existing ESP
created by Windows and add grub2-efi to it. If no ESP exists, then one will
be created. Although it is possible to have several ESPs, only one is
required, whatever the number of operating systems you have.
rEFInd
rEFInd on UEFI systems
rEFInd has a nice graphical set of options, and can auto-detect installed
EFI bootloaders. See: http://www.rodsbooks.com/refind/
Please note that in order to be able to use the rEFInd
option, an installed EFI System Partition must match your system
architecture: if you have a 32bit EFI System Partition installed on a 64bit
machine for instance, then the rEFInd option will not be displayed/available
to you.
Bootloader Setup
Glavne postavke bootloadera
Bootloader to use
GRUB2 (with either a graphical or a text menu),
can be chosen for both Legacy MBR/BIOS systems and
UEFI systems.
rEFInd (with a graphical menu) is an alternative
option solely for use with UEFI systems.
Boot device
Don't change this unless you really know what you are doing.
There is no option to write GRUB to the boot sector of a partition (e.g:
sda1), as this method is considered unreliable.
When using UEFI mode, then the Boot device will be
listed as EFI System Partition.
Delay before booting the default image
This text box lets you set a delay, in seconds, before the default operating
system is started up.
Security
This allows you to set a password for the bootloader. This means a username
and password will be required when booting in order to select a booting
entry or change settings. This is optional, and most people are not likely
to have a need for it. The username is root and the
password is the one chosen hereafter.
Lozinka
Choose a password for the bootloader (optional)
Password (again)
Retype the password and DrakX will check that it matches with the one set
above
Advanced
Enable ACPI
ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is a standard for power
management. It can save energy by stopping unused devices. Deselecting it
could be useful if, for example, your computer does not support ACPI or if
you think the ACPI implementation might cause some problems (for instance
random reboots or system lockups).
Enable SMP
This option enables/disables symmetric multiprocessing for multi-core
processors
Enable APIC
Enabling this gives the operating system access to the Advanced Programmable
Interrupt Controller. APIC devices permit more complex priority models, and
Advanced IRQ (Interrupt Request) management.
Enable Local APIC
Here you can set Local APIC, which manages all external interrupts for a
specific processor in an SMP system
Podešavanje bootloadera
If, in the previous section you selected rEFInd as the
bootloader to use, you would then be presented with the options shown in the
screenshot directly below. Otherwise, please instead move on to the
subsequent screenshot for your options.
Your rEFInd configuration options:
Install or update rEFInd in the EFI system
partition.
Install in EFI/Boot partition (workaround for some
BIOS's).
With some BIOS's, the newly written bootloader for Mageia at end of the
installation will not be recognized. In that case, you can use this option
as a workaround for the issue.
If you did not select rEFInd as the bootloader to use in the previous
section, then your bootloader configurations are shown below:
Default
The operating system to be started up by default.
Append
This option lets you pass information to the kernel or tell the kernel to
give you more information as it boots.
Probe foreign OS
If you already have other operating systems installed, Mageia attempts to
add them to your new Mageia boot menu. If you don't want this behaviour,
then untick the Probe Foreign OS option.
Advanced
Video mode
This sets the screen size and colour depth to be used by the boot menu. If
you click the down-triangle you will be offered other size and colour depth
options.
Do not touch ESP or MBR
Select this option if you don't want a bootable Mageia, but would rather
chain-load it from another OS. You will get a warning that the bootloader is
missing. Click Ok only if you are sure you
understand the implications, and wish to proceed.
Chain-loading via legacy bootloaders (GRUB Legacy and LiLo) is no longer
supported by Mageia as it is likely to fail when attempting to boot this
resulting installation of Mageia. If you use anything other than GRUB2 or
rEFInd for this purpose, then you do so at your own risk!

Using an existing bootloader
The exact procedure for adding Mageia to an existing bootloader is beyond
the scope of this documentation. However in most cases it will involve
running the relevant bootloader installation program, which should detect
Mageia and automatically add an entry for it in the bootloader menu. See the
documentation for the relevant operating system.
Installing Without a Bootloader
While you can opt to install Mageia without a bootloader (see section 2.1
Advanced), this is not recommended unless you absolutely know what you are
doing, as without some form of bootloader your operating system will be
unable to start.
