Description of problem: Booting the live/install media for either 'Run' (live) or 'Install' or 'Safe mode' grinds to a premature halt. It passes a couple of default splash screens before settling down to streaming console O/P, which ends: [FAILED] Failed to start LSB: ATI Events Daemon See 'systemctl status atieventsd.service' for details But dmesg (see note at end) O/P has several 'fglrx' complaints near the end, and terminates: systemd-readahead [nnn]: Out of memory where nnn seems to vary. This is apparently *not* bug 5426. Other virtual consoles are operative, so I can investigate - as requested - up to a point. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): M3RC Gnome LiveDVD x86_64 dated 24 April 2013 How reproducible: At every boot attempt. Here from USB flash drive (the DVD is not recognised for booting by the EFI firmware). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select the USB flash drive from F12 EFI boot menu 2. Select any of the 3 offered Mageia boot menu options (run, install, safe) 3. Wait a few seconds... I have captured the dmesg O/P, but see no way of uploading it; it is too big for inserting directly. Reproducible: Steps to Reproduce:
