   	Got OpenMandrive 3.0 RC1 installed and did a little work presently   
   doing updates.   
   	I have to say these guy are not too bright.  Calling this release   
   Einsteinium is sort of dumb because that is a transuranic   
   element with a rather short half-life.  Some isotopes of einsteinium   
   have a half-life of over a year but the short-lived isotope is down   
   to <40 days.   
           It decays so fast that it gives off blue light.   
           Poisonous and highly radioactive is just the name you want   
   to give to a new release.   
   	The installer looks better than the old installer but you have   
   to have done some installing to get thru it unscathed.  The partitioning   
   part offers the usual choices but in a rather new way.   
   	I gave the root about 25 GiB and home about 40 GiB.   
   	I did about 40 update then the shield reappeared and I hit update again   
   and over 60 updates including a later version.  The   
   shield is an icon shaped like a shield with a checkmark that shows   
   up in the system tray.   
   	The widgets are still short of the ones we are used to in   
   KDE's Plasma 4, date and time can not be copied from the digital   
   clock.
