Mageia leveres som ISO-aftryksfiler som skal skrives til tomme CD- eller DVD-diske.
Alle ISO'er kan også startes fra et USB-drev.

Til at dumpe en Mageia installations-ISO på en USB-pen kan du prøve en ud af flere værktøjer:

  • Til Linux, IsoDumper, tilgængelig i repo. Eller et hvert andet værktøj baseret på dd. UNetbootin understøttes ikke.
  • Windows - se venligst flere muligheder på vores wiki.

"Dumping" an image onto a flash device destroys any prior file-system in the partition; access to any data not destroyed will be lost, and partition capacity will be reduced to the image size. In other words, all prior data on the device is at risk.

Hvis du har UEFI, er der en procedure i wikien.
