Mageia 3 beta 1 waits for your tests

Posted on December 19, 2012 by Anne Nicolas

Finally here is Mageia 3 beta 1. This first beta release was a bit tricky as it comes with some major new features in installer. GRUB2 has been included as an option for now.

QA team is waiting for your bug reports! Please help us to make Mageia 3 meet high quality level.

Enjoy!
