+<PRE>This is a problem I had this week-end when doing a full install of Maheia 2,
+which repeated when I re-installed Mageia 1
+
+-The scene: A full install from the official DVD, all partitions formatted.
+except for /home which was not mounted for the install
+
+The install process went without any visible problem.
+
+--The symptom: Rebooting after the install gets stuck before Grub displays its
+screen.
+
+So each time I rebooted the DVD, and choose Install to upgrade (hopefully),
+
+Surprise: although I had done a full install and have no other OS installed, I
+am offered to upgrade Mageia 2, Mageia 1 and Mandriva 2010.1
+Bizarre, bizarre...
+
+Same problem, so I rebooted, started Rescue, and tried to reinstall the boot-
+loader.
+
+And there other surprise, I get two error mesages from Grub,
+Error 21 Selected device does not exist
+Error 12 Invalid device requested.
+
+So I suspect that the install process tried to install Grub, failed, and
+happily went on its way, without warning of any problem, leaving me each time
+with an unusable system...
+
+Is that a bug ? Could it happen in MGA 3 ?
+
+Cheers,
+
+Ron.

+ or more of a chance to participate in it.
