But isn't following such a tutorial which even mentions the command
line a contradiction to the task at hand?

Why is this "Installing under Windows" in this discussion here? Right:
to make it even easier for the Windows user to look at Mageia without
too much sweat. Now you are talking about something which may send the
poor Windows guy screaming, or rather throw it into the waste,
murmuring something like, "Just as I thought, geek stuff!".

But, in general I'm not a friend of this anyway. The WIndows user has
to shut down his Windows and boot into a new world. That makes him one
more time aware that Linux is not just another Windows.
