Mageia first install
+
+Machine :
+Intel Core 2 duo 6600 (2.4Ghz) 4Go free memory
+GeForce210 Nvidia Graphic card
+Sound Card : CM 8738 (C-Media Electronic)
+Printer : HP Photosmart 8250
+Scanner : Epson Perfection 2400 photo
+
+Installation performed on sda7 et sda8 partition of the main disk.
+
+Bootloader set during the summary step on the sda7 partition.
+Update during installation failed, although mirrors are set correctly and the 
+first 3 packages (urpmi, gurpmi,...) installed. Core media CD was asked (and 
+undetected) although already present in DVD reader.
+
+First boot OK.
+Update using MCC failed as mentionned above. I unchecked the CD Rom core media 
+in the media source list and then the update of packages was easily performed.
+
+Printer : unable to set up new printers using either MCC or system config 
+printer. Freeze during the search process.
+
+Scanner, need to be manually set to allow its detection by xsane.
+Sound OK
+
+Some others comments :
+
+- Libreoffice : very slow to open (around 30 s). OpenOffice on mdv 2010.2 (1 s)
+- Missing package for me :
+kderootactions-servicemenu (rpm from mdv is usable)
+
+kde4-style-qtcurve
+qtcurve-gtk2
+I use theses 3 rpm to configure my windows on mdv 2010, this avoid the use of 
+IaOra-kde and lead to a highly configurable interface.
