The login is simply "root" without a password

No, it's not so strange. The /proc file system is a bit special, the "files" 
in there aren't real files, they are generated dynamically on the fly when 
they are read. Maybe konqueror does something wrong there, I don't know.

For this, you should open a bug reporting that the installer (really the 
kernel) mis-detects your CPU and refuses to boot, and include the output of 
"cat /proc/cpuinfo".

The installer actually detects your CPU correctly, that is why it's trying to 
boot the 64 bit kernel in the first place. The bug here is in the kernel 
itself
