      Have downloaded the 386 version, but it is the 64 bit version.
      It always notified that it is the 64 bit version.

      This needs to be resolved.

        I don’t think so. I just downloaded the “full” ISO and it clearly says “IceWM 3.0.1 (Linux/i686)”. gcc is from “ftp.de.debian.org/debian bullseye/main i386 Packages”. That’s a 32-bit ISO.

            I guess that you did not read my post then…
            How about you read it then maybe think and possibly even boot it on a 32 bit system?
            Then you will see what I am talking about.

              I think this problem was already reported – it’s a 32bits ISO, it just had a problem with it’s identification, but it’s safe to proceed and install in 32bits system.

              Edit: “This needs to be resolved”
              Hum… antiX is voluntary work, anticapitalista created this OS almost single handed. Things get resolved, when they get resolved, I guess… no one can “demand” anything here, just politely ask for the Dev Team to try to solve problems…

              P.

                If it is all good to install them it should not be saying that it is a 64 bit version that is running. Just that simple.

                I have to disagree on the “single handed” but, this is a Unix based system after all, using the Linux kernel, and running a GUI made by someone else…

                I understand things get resolved when they do, just saying that it does need to be resolved.

                If I could fix it I would, but I have not yet investigated the code or anything like that yet. Maybe some day, if the system is good enough when I get to test it, then I would be able to assist.

                Until then, we will see.

                  Bye!

                  BTW – It does work and it is 386. It wrongly gives a 64bit message when it shouldn’t, that’s all.

                  antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

                    Oh, but I did.

                    How about you read it

                    Did that. See above.

                    then maybe think

                    Not only did I think about it, but I also acted by downloading a 32-bit ISO to check formyself

                    and possibly even boot it

                    Did that. See my prior post.

                    on a 32 bit system?

                    Did that.

                    Then you will see what I am talking about.

                    I did not see what you are talking about, I saw what I reported – it is a 32-bit ISO that boots on 32-bit systems and has 32-bit packages. What you are talking about appears to be false data.

                      Now there is a reply that is good and I respect.

                      The message that is produced is just a bug in an if statement and not something that will affect the system later on.

                      Good to know it is only a big thanks and not something that will impact the system after installation.

                      Will try it again and leave it for a few hours to see if it loads.
