<para>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.</para>

<para>If you already have other operating systems installed, Mageia attempts to

implicarà executar el programa d'instal·lació del gestor d'arrencada en
qüestió, que el detectarà i afegirà automàticament. Vegeu la documentació

lets you set a delay in seconds before the default operating system is
started up.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para><guilabel>Security</guilabel>: This allows you to set a password for the
bootloader. This means a username and password will be asked at the boot
time to select a booting entry or change settings. The username is "root"
and the password is the one chosen here after.</para>

<listitem>
<para><guilabel>Enable ACPI:</guilabel> ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power
Interface) is a standard for the power management. It can save energy by
stopping unused devices, this was the method used before APM. Unchecking it
could be useful if, for example, your computer does not support ACPI or if
you think the ACPI implementation might cause some problems (for instance
random reboots or system lockups).</para>

<listitem>
<para><guilabel>Enable SMP</guilabel>: This option enables / disables symmetric
multiprocessing for multi core processors.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para><guilabel>Enable APIC</guilabel>: Enabling or disabling this gives the
operating system access to the Advanced Programmable Interrupt
Controller. APIC devices permit more complex priority models, and Advanced
IRQ (Interrupt Request) management.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para><guilabel>Enable Local APIC</guilabel>: Here you can set local APIC, which
manages all external interrupts for a specific processor in an SMP system.</para>
