</p>
<p>(a) Installing onto a removable drive (e.g. a USB stick) that can be removed
and plugged into a different machine. If the bootloader is stored in
/EFI/BOOT, UEFI BIOS's will detect it and allow you to boot from that drive.

<p>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.

<p>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.
