--- Comment #4 from roke beedell ---
Apologies for not explaining the issue better. I suppose indeed that I should
have summarized it: For those that read this later, I am unable to install
OpenSUSE Tumbleweed onto my Linx 1010 because its EFI is 32-bit, despite its
CPU being 64-bit.
To answer shundhammer@suse.com's question, the LINX 1010 is from approximately
2015, so it's not particularly old or new in my eyes, although definitely more
old than new. However, more importantly, it runs Debian quickly, and had no
problems with Windows 10 (until they removed its touchscreen driver from
Windows Update).
Additionally, considering that https://forums.opensuse.org/t/164192/4
demonstrates that installation of OSTW works well if the correct grub is
generated, I can't see this being much of a problem.
After all, there's little inherently old about a 32-bit system. Just like how
some VAXes in the 80s used 256 bit bus sizes, some computers are better suited
to 32-bits, if we ignore the glaring the software compatibility problems that
it invokes without translation layers.
Anyway, considering the aforementioned
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1178340, isn't this problem a
regression? After all, that issue couldn't have been completed without 32-bit
EFI support, surely?
