+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; I was talking to someone i know about Mageia, and she poked around the
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; site, but then asked how to put the iso on an usbstick, since her
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; netbook didn't have cdrom.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; I had to admit i didn't know exactly how, which brings me to my point:

+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; Perhaps it would be nice to have a link on the download page, on how to

+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; usb-stick-ify it)
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; WDYT?

+</I>&gt;<i> It's always good to have this kind of documentation, that we can

+</I>&gt;<i> So someone to write an article about this is welcome.

+I would prefer to not link the download page to our temporary wiki, as it
+doesn't look that good imho.
+
+an extra translatable page on the website would sound good, i suppose:
+
+rough format:
+-----------------
+What to do with this iso file?
+
+first, choose the right one for you.
+==&gt; explanation about 32bit/64bit
+==&gt; mention about dualboot
+==&gt; mention about live iso and how you can install that if you want
+==&gt; mention about the other isos and briefly what they mean
+
+option 1) burn it to CD/DVD with your favourite CD/DVD burner
+==&gt; examples with small screenshot from windows/macosx/linux
+==&gt; notice on size of iso and CD or DVD format, notion about RW also being ok
+==&gt; explanation of verifying md5sum
+
+option 2) how to put an iso on a stick?
+==&gt; examples with small screenshot from windows/macosx/linux
+==&gt; explanation of verifying md5sum
+
+option 3) virtualisation
+==&gt; briefly mention XEN/KVM/Vbox/VMWare
+==&gt; explanation of importance of verifying an md5sum
+
+
+something like this...
