Description Len Lawrence 2015-06-20 18:13:51 CEST 
Description of problem:
After the package installation step the configuration of network access and setting up a user ends in the system hanging forever in cases where the network connection fails.  It is necessary to reboot via a virtual console or power cycle and go through the networking and user setup stage again.  This time a reboot is suggested for setting to be effective and this gets to the login screen.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Mageia 5 final

How reproducible:
This seems to occur only if a wireless connection cannot be made.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install Mageia from the GNOME Live DVD on a system with weak wireless reception.
2.
3.

Sorry for the very late triaging of this bug report. 

Assigning to the Mageia Tools maintainer group.

It would be nice if you could confirm that the bug is still present on Mageia 6 when the next set of testing ISOs are released.
