Now it's there!

EDIT: Sorry, too impatient. Only the first Gnome LiveCDs landed here so far, others will follow - but they are coming in now!

Yes - rsync cronjob on our German mirror ran a couple of minutes too early :(
I started it again manually and the ISOs are streaming in...

Well, last chance to test ISOs and the installer.

awsome now have Mageia 2 on my home, work and going to setup a custom mageia 2 with custom packages and deploy over network. good work Mageia two devs i will be helping in the gfx team soonish hopefully. Will the repos stay on Cauldron for RC or will they migrate to more stable repos? I dont want to stay on Cauldron just incase of a breakage :D

Why?
There are
- links on the RC download page,
- link to download in the blog announcement,
- the general download page which lists the same mirrors,
- the pages with all mirrors listed.

What are you not finding in all these pages so you have to ask here? Go to one of these pages and select the mirror nearest to you.

No, not at all :)
I was just curious why patrickdarcy asked this question - as he wrote "everytime" I take for given, that he already downloaded a Beta/RC at least once, so he should know where to find one of the numerous places.

For an absolute beginner:
- go to mageia.org
- follow the link to the news "Try Mageia 2 Release Candidate" and you are right there.

If he cannot find the way even though it's plain obvious and posted everywhere then he shouldn't be using the internet but i shouldn't be so nasty so i will help anyone find their way if they need help :)

Yes, that's right. So although he is not new I still pointed him to the various places.
Not on fire - far from it, although obgr_seneca told me that it is always good to have some matches with you. :)

Also maybe some pieces of wood for a stake ... ;)
Cauldron is not for the faint of heart!
