Boring! What is boring?
Download ... burn ... boot ... fail

Can you be more descriptive ? saying that doesn't help us much to know what is your problem. Doesn't the live cd display the boot menu ? or don't get video after you choose one of the boot options ? do you see any error messages while booting ? etc, you get the idea. Please tell us more about the problem.

That is boring.
Live DVD and CD as well, both GNOME and KDE4 versions
I do hope your final release will support known hardware.

I had problems too with the KDE LiveDVD and the dualarch CD with a Dell Vostro 3750, here're the bug reports:

PS: My machine runs Mageia 2, KDE4 ... GNOME won't display ... sigh

Hi there

Finally it's done, alpha3 is out. See announcement on Mageia blog:

http://blog.mageia.org/en/2012/11/14/send-bugs-ad-patres-for-mageia-3-alpha-3/

As said, your feedbacks are needed especially for hardware support and upgrade from Mageia 2.

Thanks all for the hard work.

Enjoy!
