Mageia (from Greek μαγεία (mageía) - magic, enchantment) is a free and open-source operating system from the GNU/Linux family of operating systems. Mageia is developed by a community of dedicated users, and backed by the non-profit organisation mageia.org – a group of individuals elected by the Mageia Board. Whether you're a first-time GNU/Linux user, a software developer, an experienced system administrator or a casual web-surfer, Mageia is the right choice for you. Mageia can be installed on a computer as both the main operating system and an alternative to one or several other installed operating systems.

The release date of the upcoming stable release of the Mageia project – Mageia 9 – is still to be announced.

Note that versions listed in this page are for the release medias. During a Mageia release lifetime we push thousands of updates and hundreds of backports packages. For example find here current lists of Mageia 9 x86_64 updates and backports packages.

Available installation media
Mageia can be installed using one of three installation media:

Classic install ISOs (DVD 32-bit and 64-bit), which use the traditional DrakX installer (Note: use the documentation for release 8 until the installer for Mageia 9 is available). The ISOs contain all supported locales, a large variety of packages to choose from during installation (common desktop environments) and all non-free drivers. The use of non-free packages can be disabled during the installation. Note that by decision, Classic Installer will not use non-free drivers during install, so you may need wired Ethernet if you wish to use online repositories for updates during install.
Network install ISOs (32-bit and 64-bit, available in both free and non-free versions. Note: Net-install ISOs are not adapted to boot on 32-bit EFI) are minimally-sized and only contain a Stage 1 installer, which contains only the most basic hardware support to boot, connect to a network and download a stage 2 installer. You may require the non-free version to obtain the necessary proprietary drivers, for example for WiFi connectivity. From this point onward, the installation process is very similar to that of a traditional ISO, the only difference being that all necessary and optional packages are fetched from remote repositories. Note: It is a good idea to perform a minimal installation, and continue the rest of the installation after booting to the target system. This is especially recommended during Mageia's development stages (alpha, beta, RC), where packages and files change frequently and unexpectedly.
Live ISOs can be used to boot directly into Mageia or to install Mageia to a fixed drive. The live installation medium includes three desktop environments to choose from and get started with; Plasma (64-bit), GNOME (64-bit) and Xfce (32 or 64-bit). It also contains all supported locales and comes with extensive hardware support, as well as an assortment of various packages, making the Live ISOs the simplest and quickest way to get started with Mageia. The Live ISOs support the memory persistence feature, which allows for preservation of user files and the customisation of the system at the next boot. The files can also optionally be encrypted. Thanks to this, you can now take Mageia and your files everywhere with you! Furthermore, you can also spin your own live installation medium!. Tip: To optimise updates, you can uninstall packages; see more on Removing packages#Persistent Live USB.
All ISO images can be burned to a CD/DVD or dumped to an USB flash drive. Note: Due to the actual capacity of drives being slightly lower than the marketed size, a 4 GB ISO image could be too big for some nominally-4 GB drives.
