Description of problem:

I downloaded mageia 5 beta 2 and burned to dvd+r.  booted from dvd, and selected magiea live.  boot hung on blank screen.  also tried kernel params (no acpi, no local ioapic, radeon.dpm=1) but none made any difference.

Can you provide the output of lspcidrake -v (if you have a working Mageia) or lspci -vvv?

Comment 7 Samuel Verschelde 2015-06-06 01:58:08 CEST 
Does Mageia 5 RC (or final if you have access to QA ISOs or Mageia 5 has been released by the time you can test) work better?

Comment 8 kirk sticken 2015-06-15 00:38:34 CEST 
the issue was recreated using the RC on 2015/05/22.  the RC was downloaded and used to get the documentation requested.
Comment 9 Samuel Verschelde 2015-06-15 10:17:08 CEST

Comment 10 kirk sticken 2015-07-09 04:36:12 CEST 
problem circumvented.  followed the procedure for "Possible boot failure from DVD with some Radeon hardware"  (which is to boot from usb instead) and I was able to install mageia 5
Comment 11 Marja Van Waes 2016-08-26 13:50:01 CEST 
Closing as OLD because this bug saw no action since over a year ago.

Please reopen if it is still valid with Mageia6sta1 or newer
