First I tried installing RC using a UEFI BIOS. I really didn't (still don't) understand the (extended?) system partition thing. It was installed on /dev/sdc, a Samsung 850 SSD. GRUB2 did NOT find my Windows 10 partition (Windows 10 in installed on /dev/sda). So I tried something else. I re-installed RC the old-fashioned way, using legacy BIOS (non-UEFI). That worked much better for me. This time GRUB2 DID find my Windows 10 partition - probably because GRUB2 is now installed on /dev/sda.
Finally, on the Plasma 5 desktop....there seems to be no way (or I just haven't found it yet) to change the color of the text under the icons (I prefer black to white) and to get rid of the shadows around that text.
Thank you!

Mageia-6-rc-LiveDVD-Xfce-i586-DVD.iso without installing them (on two laptops, Asus and Lenovo) and I noticed that none of them can mount my sdcard formatted as exFAT. I know there are discussions about this on the forum but I was a bit shocked by this problem. On one of my laptops I installed Ubuntu Mate 16.04.2 and it can mount the sdcard without any problems. I can help with more information if needed.
