IIRC there is issue with dkms, so yes there is no dkms-like on the isos.

Maybe it can be resolved.

Added isos makers.

(P.S you remove the non used text "Ver.... ", and the Component Installer in only for the drakx-installer)

We dont put dkms on livecds.

The only way to get a dkms-based driver on the livecds, is if it's a prebuilt binary rpm, but we dont have that in mageia so far.
