Hi.

It seems that on my AMD system only an older Mag3 live cd works but that's now overwritten.
Mag4, 4.1, 5 do not work.

So, I always use an old Mandrive 2007 or a Systemrescue CD.
Install disks do work.

Very annoying,

Just FYI. Maybe Mag6 wil be better. (1 upgrade per year, more or less mandatory is very annoying)

Please be more verbose then "it's not working". How far does it boot, what error message do you get, what behaviour do you see?
Did you try any of the hints offered in errata? https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_5_Err ... e_CD.2FDVD

Well... I need to get work done so after 20min I quit waiting.
No errors or anything. Just nothing is happening after a certain point .. cannot remember right now what point ... was some time ago ... lot on my mind now.
No the errata were no help, yes i tried diverse settings.

I'll see if Mag6 works better with my system. It will likely come out ca. may-2016. So I have till end next year to get Mag5 working, then start worrying about Mag6 again. It never stops.

I'll just mark this topic as [DONE]

I just wonder: if I have Mag4, and Mag6 is released, can I still upgrade to Mag5 and when OK, upgrade then to Mag6? Getting time-stressed over here.

Yes you can, and that is the only supported path.
