</div>
</div>
<p>With an UEFI system, the user interface is slightly different as you cannot
choose between with or without graphical menu
</p>
<p>If Mageia is the only system installed on your computer, the installer
created an ESP (EFI System Partition) to receive the bootloader
(Grub2-efi). If there are already UEFI operating systems installed on your
computer (Windows 8 for example), the Mageia installer detects the existing
ESP created by Windows and adds grub2-efi. Although it is possible to have
several ESPs, only one is advised and enough whatever the number of
operating systems you have.

<p>By default, according to your system, Mageia writes a new:</p>
<div class="itemizedlist">
<ul class="itemizedlist">
<li class="listitem">
<p>GRUB2 bootloader either into the MBR (Master Boot Record) of your first hard
drive or in the BIOS boot partition.
</p>
</li>
<li class="listitem">
<p>Grub2-efi bootloader into the ESP</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<p>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,
click on <span class="guibutton">Next</span> and then uncheck the box
<span class="guilabel">Probe Foreign OS</span></p>

<p>The exact procedure for adding your Mageia system to an existing bootloader
is beyond the scope of this help, however in most cases it will involve
running the relevant bootloader installation program which should detect and
add it automatically. See the documentation for the operating system in
question.

click on <span class="guibutton">Next</span>, then on
<span class="guibutton">Advanced</span> and Check the box <span class="guilabel">Do not touch ESP
