+<PRE>I tried installing Mageia 3 Beta 4 on an ASUS 64-bit PC,
+a network install.
+
+A couple of problems I noticed:
+
+(1) insmoding xen_blkfront failed
+ /lib/libDrakX/modules.pm line 96
+
+ (I was not using a virtual machine, this was an install onto
+ a physical PC)
+
+(2) During installation sometimes the wifi would go down.
+ I'd get a message,
+ Some files are missing [list of packages]
+ try to continue?
+
+ If you scroll down the list of packages you see another
+ message,
+ retry?
+
+ There's a do not ask again button.
+
+ It's not at all clear - does &quot;do not ask again&quot; mean
+ &quot;do not attempt to download packages a second time in
+ the future&quot;?
+ Please reword so it's clear...
+
+(3) It might be better if, on a download failure, the installer
+ checked the network was still up.
+
+(4) the installer doesn't redraw itself on an expose event,
+ so if you switch to another virtual console and back,
+ the installer is then a blank rectangle with rounded
+ corners, sometimes for quite a long time (minutes)
+
+(5) a message,
+ &quot;script failed for mailman_2.1.15-3.mga3-x86-64:&quot;
+
+ (there was a blank line underneath but no more text)
+
+Overall the install seems OK, although I don't know which packages were
+missed...
