Mageia是Mandriva Linux于2010年9月形成的分支，它由那份来自法国的颇受欢迎的Linux发行的前雇员及贡献者们创建。与Mandriva这份商业实体所不同的是，Mageia计划乃是一个社区项目及一个非盈利性组织，它的目标是开发一套自由的基于Linux的操作系统。
Anne Nicolas has announced the availability of the first beta release of Mageia 1, a Mandriva Linux fork set up by former Mandriva developers and contributors: "As has been stated in the Mageia roadmap, Mageia 1 beta 1 is now available for tests. The first Mageia stable release is planned for 1st of June (which is now quite near). Our focus is always on improving distribution content but also lots of work was done on localisation support (locales, main applications, Asian locales). Core package versions include: Linux kernel 2.6.38.2, KDE 4.6.1, GNOME 2.32, Firefox 4.0. For beta 1, the Mageia team has set up an easy page to help you download the ISOs: have a look at the download page. Also note that torrents have been set up for beta 1. Two live CDs will be available on the mirrors, on 7th of April at the latest." See the release announcement and release notes for further information.
