Created attachment 9741 [details] .tgz of /root/drakx Installation method: HTTP via grub loading all-nonfree.rdz and vmlinuz with these cmdline options: automatic=met:http,int:eth0,ser:mirrors.us.kernel.org,dir:/mageia/distrib/6/x86_64,netw:static,ip:192.168.#.#,gat:192.168.#.#,dns:192.168.#.#,dom:mydomain,hos:k8mmv net.ifnames=0 readonly=1 nokmsboot vga=791 video=1024x768@60 gfxcard is Radeon AGP rv250 (9000) I found two selections available in mga6 for bootloader location on multi-multiboot BIOS system to /dev/sda14 / target: 1-/dev/sda 2-/dev/fd0 Since overwriting /dev/sda is not acceptable, finding no other alternatives in attempting to proceed, I selected /dev/fd0. The result was the GUI hung. I could switch to tty[1-6], and see reported success in bootloader installation and beyond, but not return to tty7 (assumed location of installer). The installation seems to have completed anyway. I'm running it booted from the master bootloader on /dev/sda3. See also: Bug 20543 - No boot device choices in Grub2 installation screen

This message is a reminder that Mageia 6 is end of life. Mageia stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 6. At that time this bug will be closed as OLD (EOL). Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version prior to Mageia 6's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we cannot be able to fix it before Mageia 6 was end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. -- Mageia Bugsquad
