+<PRE>I have just tried an update from Mandriva, in part because I couldn't update
+from 2010 to 2011 due to problems with Mandriva package install, missing
+dependencies and memory leaks.
+
+
+
+All went well apart from a few packages (not vital) not installing due to
+Mandriva/Mageia conflicts.
+
+
+
+I had no problem rebooting, maybe because I had chosen an upgrade.
+
+
+
+I did have a problem with the hal daemon not starting before trying to get
+updates, and could get no updates before I'd rebooted.
+
+I also got a Gnome disk notification error while Gnome came up, but the
+Gnome Bugzilla couldn't connect to send it.
+
+
+
+I'll report again after I've updated everything and added more packages. I
+am trying to update right now.
+
+
+
+One suggestion, because I upgraded the only kernels that are named are
+Mandriva. I had to guess which were the Mageia kernels. They were just
+labelled 'Linux' which was different to any Mandriva one but of course that
+can be changed if I relabelled.
+
+
+
+If I'm successful with the cross-distro upgrade, next step is a clean
+install.
+
+
+
+I am using the i586 version with a single AMD 2 GHZ processor, 512 MB of RAM
+and an Nvidia FX5200 graphics card. The card often prevents a gfx
+bootsplash.
