</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; ...
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; So when in the USB pen disk i renamed the packages to its original
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; filenames, the install went fine and finally made to conclude with
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; sucess Mageia 2 install.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; I don't know rufus, but as you are able to modify the names of the
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; files in the USB, this is not a simple dump of the ISO : an ISO image
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; cannot be modified. This is so a modified DVD image, that seems to
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; introduce new bugs.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; The only way I know to put Mageia's ISO in a USB key is :
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; dd if=DVD.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=8M
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; (the bs option is only to accelerate writing speed).
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I really dont get what you mean, no one modified the .iso image or its
</I>&gt;<i> contents, and what i said is that the packages with long filenames
</I>&gt;<i> were modified, the end of the packages names didnt appear., so instead
</I>&gt;<i> appearing in the USB pen disk:
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> telepathy-kde-common-internals-translations-0.3.0-1.mga2.noarch.rpm
</I>&gt;<i> vboxadditions-kernel-3.3.6-desktop-2.mga2-4.1.12-5.mga2.x86_64.rpm
</I>&gt;<i> vboxadditions-kernel-3.3.6-netbook-2.mga2-4.1.12-5.mga2.x86_64.rpm
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> it was appearing:
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> telepathy-kde-common-internals-translations-0.3.0-1.mga2.noar
</I>&gt;<i> vboxadditions-kernel-3.3.6-desktop-2.mga2-4.1.12-5.mga2.x86
</I>&gt;<i> vboxadditions-kernel-3.3.6-netbook-2.mga2-4.1.12-5.mga2.x86
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> and after i renamed the packages to its original names the install went
</I>&gt;<i> ok.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>
_You_ used a Windows application to write the image to the USB key.

If _you_ had used the application correctly, you would have written the
iso image to the device.

The applcation _you_ used to write the content of the iso to the devive
truncated the long filenames.

_You_ made the errors.
