I tried that and now have a system with 3.8 that will either
(1) boot to the first blob above the cauldron :-) and then panics with
    Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed

or
(2) with acpi=off boots to the login screen but the HP wireless USB
    keyboard and mouse don't work.

By the way, the installer looked nicer, with images and slogans about
Mageia is for People in somewhat broken English :-) Maybe it's because I
used the network installer ISO instead of the full DVD.
