Mageia 5 Beta 2 發布
Mageia是Mandriva Linux于2010年9月形成的分支，它由那份來自法國的頗受歡迎的Linux發行的前雇員及貢獻者們創建。與Mandriva這份商業實體所不同的是，Mageia計劃乃是一個社區項目及一個非盈利性組織，它的目標是開發一套自由的基于Linux的操作系統。

After several delays the beta 2 version of Mageia 5 is finally out! You can find more information here.
But, it seems that yet again we need to postpone the Mageia 5 release.
Due to various difficulties with EFI boot, grub 2 and a few other things, we need a little more time. Only a few members of our QA team have EFI-based machines, so if you do have such equipment please test Beta 2 and report your experience.
Our QA, Packagers and ISO teams are working around the clock to bring us all a stable and secure release, but they still need to work out a few kinks.
Therefore, we are planning one more Beta release before the release candidate. So the final timeline looks like this:
- Beta 3 – February 3
- RC – February 24
- Final release – March 10 </ul>
We’re sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience and understanding, and in case you were wondering if there’s anything you could do to help, just ask the teams!
We need as many people as possible to try this beta in order to identify any remaining problems. Please report any problems that you experience in the forums, mailing lists or, preferably, in bugzilla. Also don’t forget to check the errata.
