+<PRE>I realised that Mageia (like Mandriva) creates uids and gids starting at 
+500. Many other distros use 1000 - if you have multiple boot system with 
+other linux distros, that means that you need to manually specify user 
+ids if you want to access data shared between the system partitions.
+
+How about adding a radio button in the initial User Management Screen 
+(the one where you also provide the root login) which allows you to 
+define whether you want uids and gids automatically created to start at 
+500 or 1000? That would make life (a little bit) easier for a more and 
+more current situation.
+
+Is there something like an enhancement bug report?
