I installed Mageia 2 Beta 1 on the computer from scratch.
I have had some problems so far:
1) I did the install from a flash drive using the x86_64 ISO.
- I could not install any packages after installation
- I finally figured out that I had to mount the flash ISO
partition, but I don't think it was intuitive at first
- Is there a way to detect installation from flash and let the
user know that the ISO partition must be mounted?
- I don't remember having to explicitly mount the DVD in th past
- I never removed the flash after install, which is probably why I
didn't think about it
2) The sound card section showed up twice on the page of other
installation settings
- Not sure what this page is called, but it lets you setup the
network, video, proxy, etc
- The second instance was directly after the first
- I'm pretty sure I don't have 2 sound cards, but it is an
integrated motherboard so I guess it's possible

3) I installed a second NIC in the machine and the eth0 and eth1 aliases
keep sometimes switch between the two
- I already saw a bug report about this, but it is really annoying
4) dhclient isn't run automatically. I have to run it manually
- Network Center is set for automatic IP and dhclient is set as the
DHCP client
5) After installing the SSh Server I was unable to connect remotely
- I had to add "SSHD: ALL" to /etc/hosts.allow
- I set security to server when installing the distro
6) radeon-firmware Bug 1471
- This has hit me on 3 of my 4 machines (Mageia 1 and Mageia 2 Beta
- It was made worse by my inability to install ssh-server blindly
- I tried to install it by switching to a terminal, logging in
and using urpmi. It didn't work because of (1)
- (3) and (4) didn't help either
- The work-around from the Errata didn't work because the firmware
wasn't installed
- installing the firmware automatically rebuilt the initrd
