+Thanks. I tried to find a developer to look at 727.

+(I mailed this to two of them, on september 7th. At that time, I wasn't aware that grub install might be related to a different package than drakx-installer-stage2):
+
+Hi Pascal and/or bom dia Dorileo,
+
+
+
+I'm learning to be a bug squad member, and I don't know which one of you
+to address.
+
+
+
+Dorileo is the only one who maintains installer, according to this list:
+
+http://www.mageia.org/wiki/doku.php?id=packaging#list_of_registered_people
+
+And according to Sophie, there isn't a drakx-installer-stage2
+maintainer, but I know Pascal accepted installer issues before. Did you
+maintain drakx-installer-stage2 in Mandriva, Pascal?
+
+
+
+Anyway could you please look at
+https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=727? If it still hasn't been
+assigned to anyone else, could one of you take it?
+
+
+
+Thanks / obrigada
+
+Regards,
+
+Marja
+
+But since they didn't have time to reply fast (and I didn't manage to patiently wait), I figured it would be easier to address this problem in, e.g., an install.txt.
+
+Anyway, I'll have a look at the links you gave, Manuel, though the above one (http://mageia.org/1/notes/) is very unreadable to me, it's kind of empty ;)
