[Mageia-discuss] Mageia review with bad experience

[Renaud (Ron) Olgiati]

This part of the review set me thinking:

Could there be a way for the live distro to detect the presence of an existing 
install on the HD of the box, and if so get from there all this information 
needed to launch the live CD ? 
Possibly checking with the user that it is all right to do so in case he wants 
other settings ?

Cheers,
 
Ron.
