<p>Mageia is distributed via ISO images. This page will help you to choose
which image best suits your needs.
</p>
<p>There are three types of installation media:</p>
<div class="itemizedlist">
<ul class="itemizedlist">
<li class="listitem">
<p><span class="bold"><strong>Classical installer:</strong></span> Booting with this
media provides you with the maximum flexibility when choosing what to
install, and for configuring your system. In particular, you have a choice
of which Desktop environment to install.
</p>
</li>
<li class="listitem">
<p><span class="bold"><strong>LIVE media:</strong></span> This option allows you to try
out Mageia without having to actually install it, or make any changes to
your computer. However, the Live media also includes an Installer, which can
be started when booting the media, or after booting into the Live operating
system itself.

the PC hard disk, on a local drive, on a local network or on the Internet.

<p>These media are very light (less than 100 MB) and are convenient if
bandwidth is too low to download a full DVD, or if you have a PC without a
DVD drive or is unable to boot from a USB stick.

<p>Here, a medium (plural: media) is an ISO image file that allows you to
install and/or update Mageia and, by extension, any physical medium (DVD,
USB stick, ...) the ISO file is copied to.

<p>Once you have chosen your ISO file, you can download it using either http or
BitTorrent. In both cases, you are provided with some information, such as
the mirror in use and an option to switch to an alternative if the bandwidth
is too low.
</p>
<p>If http is chosen you will also see some information regarding checksums.</p>
<p><code class="literal">md5sum</code>, <code class="literal">sha1sum</code> and
<code class="literal">sha512sum</code> (the most secure) are tools to check the ISO
integrity. Copy one of the checksums (string of alphanumeric characters) for
use in the next section.
</p>
<p>In the meantime, a window to download the actual ISO will open:</p>
<p>Click on <span class="emphasis"><em>Save File</em></span>, then click <span class="emphasis"><em>OK</em></span>.

<p>The checksums referred to earlier, are digital fingerprints generated by an
algorithm from the file to be downloaded. You may compare the checksum of
your downloaded ISO against that of the original source ISO. If the
checksums do not match, it means that the actual data on the ISO's do not
match, and if that is the case, then you should retry the download or
attempt a repair using BitTorrent.
</p>
<p>To generate the checksum for your downloaded ISO, open a console, (no need
to be root), and:

<p>Also, the only partition on the flash device will then just be the Mageia
ISO partition.
</p>
<p>So, if an ISO of about 4GB is written to an 8GB USB stick, the stick will
then only show up as 4GB. This is because the remaining 4GB is no longer
formatted - hence not currently available for use. To recover the original
capacity, you must reformat and repartition the USB stick.
