Virtualbox "VBox OS Type" is "Mageia" - invalid.

The "Mageia Edition" of VirtualBox seems to be special in that it allows "Mageia as the "Version" of Type "Linux" of a Virtual Maschine on the basic settings.

Could it be that this results in naming the "VBox OS Type" as Mageia when doing an export? I did create a Virtualbox with Mageia 32 bit under Mageia 64 bit. I did choose "Version" as Mageia during creation. I did export. But it could not be imported due to an error (please check https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/12657).

Maybe the maintainer wants to look at this.

Thanks for the great work!!!

Then please report that as a bug, after searching if it hasn't been reported yet already: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/How_to_report_a_bug_properly
