"Houston we have a problem!" - I downloaded the ISO for the i586 version of Tumbleweed and the installation failed due to missing image files. I checked the installation DVD and sure enough, the image files were all labeled for x64 versions. Why? That obviously was not what the image installation scripts were looking for since I got a complaint, loud and clear, that the image files it was looking for were not to be found on the DVD!
Why isn't there an i586 version of Leap 42.1?
It was decided that a 32bit version wasn't needed. There was a half-baked initiative to create a 32bit version, but it never really got off the ground.
All I get when following the links for installing Leap is for x64 versions and I need to download an OpenSuSE OS for an older system with x32 bit architecture?
I would recommend openSUSE 13.2 plus updates.
With 13.1 going Evergreen (long term security updates) wouldn't that be a better choice?
Yes, you're right, 13.1 is probably the better choice. For all new installations, I use 13.2 myself, but I'm not overly concerned about updates. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (15.1°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - virtual servers, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
