The first issue looks like bug 18316, which was fixed, after Mageia 6sta1 was released: http://gitweb.mageia.org/software/drakx/commit/?id=faa380c2ed0ce9b5094750897db086e058225f2b I'm not sure fixing it in images/make_boot_img was enough to fix it for non-netinstall isos, too, though :-/ > Later in installation -- in the final screen where all configs (timezone, > language, keyboard, etc.) are reviewed -- a mess occurs on the screen when one > needs e.g. to change the keyboard from "Brazilian ABNT-2" to "Português". Can you try whether you can reproduce that issue with a current cauldron netinstall.iso (boot.iso) install, and, if so, take a screenshot of the mess? > Also, that initial screen with image selection quickly disappears. I suggest > including a pause to allow the user to read the entire message. Do you mind filing an enhancement request for that, and attach a picture of the mentioned screen to that report? Thanks :-) Keywords:

NEEDINFO First, Marja, you are right. It's the same issue. Congrats on catching that. I apologize that I didn't find it yesterday and thank you for your patience with people that make such mistakes when reporting errors. About the mess, it may be related to the bug 18316, too. Besides highlighting and color-changing sequences, there are cursor positioning codes and these might not be working, too. I will try the netinstall, as you mention (burning as I write this). If the issue persists (erm, after I use the corrected iso) then I'll attach a screenshot -- otherwise I'll make a note about this being a duplicate of said bug. About the enhancement request, I'll do it, too. Thanks for your assistance and please keep up the good work. Also, congrats to everyone on the recent 5.1 release.

Well, I'd better have patience ... I make such mistakes, too ;-) Thanks for your bug reports, they already helped to get at least a dozen bugs fixed :-) > If the issue persists (erm, after I use the corrected iso) then I'll attach a > screenshot -- otherwise I'll make a note about this being a duplicate of said > bug. Perfect! > Thanks for your bug reports, they already helped to get at least a dozen bugs fixed :-)
Well, it's much more impressive to see how Mageia developers show love for what they do. It's very inspiring, in fact.
After the "netinstall", I noticed the issue was in fact solved -- highlights and colors were back and beautiful. Therefore the present bug can be
The problems with screen visual mess do continue and I expect to open another bug in the near future (I got some photos), as well as an enhancement request about giving the user more time to read the text instructions.
Thanks, Marja. Have a good week!
