</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> - Test also multiboot with Ubuntu and Fedora (auto-detection)
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>

</I>
How many percent of $ALL is your &quot;everybody&quot;? Most not-so-experienced
users will not use btrfs until it is the standard filesystem in the
installer. People who will not install Mageia2 but upgrade Mageia1
will continue with their current filesystem. There are more reasons to
keep Grub1 for a while as an option.
