</I>>>><i> I really dont get what you mean, no one modified the .iso image or its

</I>>>><i> telepathy-kde-common-internals-translations-0.3.0-1.mga2.noarch.rpm

</I>>>><i> vboxadditions-kernel-3.3.6-netbook-2.mga2-4.1.12-5.mga2.x86_64.rpm
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> it was appearing:
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> telepathy-kde-common-internals-translations-0.3.0-1.mga2.noar
</I>>>><i> vboxadditions-kernel-3.3.6-desktop-2.mga2-4.1.12-5.mga2.x86
</I>>>><i> vboxadditions-kernel-3.3.6-netbook-2.mga2-4.1.12-5.mga2.x86
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> and after i renamed the packages to its original names the install went
</I>>>><i> ok.
</I>>>><i>
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> _You_ used a Windows application to write the image to the USB key.

</I>
But i forgot to say that for Mageia 2 official release there is a
problem with the .iso, using dd to save it to a USB pen disk doesnt
set it as a bootable device, and this is a new bug to be reported.
