Oops, I may have misunderstood vlad's "Second attempt preparing usb stick manually from first principles." I assumed he meant he dd'ed the iso. Lowering priority until it is sure someone reproduced this bug Priority:

It was not DDd. I'll repeat that and add a comment if different. CC:

vzawalin1 I tried again, because I wanted to get a stage1.log, but didn't succeed to workaround the issue. (I think previous time I accidentally chose a still present boot.iso to boot from, after booting from the USB key failed) Anyway, I now tried to change the method on the boot options line from cdrom to disk, but that still led to the same error. Summary:

classical iso UEFI-install from USB looks for CD-ROM ('/isolinux/x86_64/vmlinuz' not found) As per comment 2, that USB was prepared using the 'cp from .. to ..' method. I just prepared a usb with isodumper leaving the uefi field blank. This failed entirely: Error: file isolinux/x86_64/vmlinuz not found Alloc magic is broken at 0x79fe2c80 Aborted. Press any key to exit. Raises the question - can isodumper/dd be used at all to prepare USBs for Classic? Just tried a usb made with dd. Same as comment 4. Thomas' post on qa-testing ml explains why. Setting as release blocker again, and quoting Thomas:
> The isos still carry the RC label: "Mageia-5rc-x86_64"
> But I have aleready changed the efi menu for final: "Mageia-5-x86_64"
> So thats why the "/isolinux/x86_64/vmlinuz not found" comes from.Priority:

release_blocker Same problem here USB stick copied with isodumper without check the EFI box. The stick boot fine on non-efi hw, but "Error: file isolinux/x86_64/vmlinuz not found" on efi hw. CC:
