Mandriva Linux Community Builds

Mandriva Linux is officially available for free download only in the Free, One KDE4 and One Gnome editions. But there are also a number of assemblies that are classified as “unofficial” and executed by various Mandriva Linux communities. Let's take a look at what builds distribution lovers can still try. At once I will say that informal assemblies may have more errors than official assemblies, but this is leveled by the resulting features.
