The setting up of sources +is almost automatical once you rebooted your system. A popup of the +update icon will tell you that there is no sources configured yet. If +you answer with "Yes" to the related question, the setup will be done +with mirrorlist. See: newbie-friendly. All you have to do then is to +activate the non-free and tainted repos, which is (as already written) +an "opt-in" task and can't be done by default. + +-- +wobo +</PRE> + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="007270.html">[Mageia-discuss] Mageia 2 RC - Installation from a DVD with a beginner point of sight +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="007272.html">[Mageia-discuss] Mageia 2 RC - Installation from a DVD with a beginner point of sight +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#7271">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#7271">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#7271">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#7271">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">More information about the Mageia-discuss +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
