The first thing I'd try would be to disable speedboot. In the Mageia Control Centre, select the "Boot" tab (from the list on the left), click on "Set up boot system", click on the "Next" button", highlight the default boot entry and click on the "Modify" button" and in the "Append" field in the pop-up window, add "speedboot=no" to the other boot options already listed. Then click on the "OK" button in the pop-up window, followed by the "Finish" button in the main window.
