Description claire robinson 2012-09-03 13:21:44 CEST
Mageia 3 alpha1 DVD i586 (3rd set)

Watching the text as the rescue system boots, it flashes past at the end but I managed to capture it with a camera.

perl: warning: Setting locale failed
perl: warning falling back to "C"

Comment 1 Thierry Vignaud 2012-09-03 14:40:08 CEST
That's not an issue, it's just a warning due to us forcing the system to UTF-8 w/o any locale (we really miss a C.UTF-8 locale in glibc, I think Debian has one).
