"mageia" is greek and means "magic" or "wizzardry" - we are back to
the roots! The first name of this distribution was "Linux Mandrake"
actually named after the comic wizard "Mandrake the Magician" and the
first logo showed this comic character. A last part of this logo is
still the Mandriva star, it was attached to the magic stick of
"Mandrake"..
