Hello,

I updated my laptop from Mageia 4 this summer using internet update. After last update few weeks ago my computer failed to boot. I tried to use Mageia 5 dvd for rescue and reinstall bootloaderbut failed. Then I tried to reinstall mageia 5, but after choosing ¨erase and use whole disc¨ and restarted computer -> ¨no operating system found¨
It is sad...
Maybe someone can help?
I ques it might be something with UEFI?

Did you reboot in the partitioner step, when installer told you to reboot for partitioning changes? Or did you complete the installation?

If the latter, what motherboard do you use and is UEFI currently enabled or not?

it was no other choice except to reboot during disc partitioning

Ok, and on the next boot did you start the installation again and complete it? If you didn't then you only did the partitioning and rebooted as required - which clearly did not install anything ...

Code: Select all

but Mate volume control doesn´t work and I don´t understand how to fix it.
