This program is off dated and most pc's nowadays won't Support 32 bits. Not recommended for modern computers with 64 bit processes. Because 64 bits is not supported in this program is installation.

Completely out of date. Kernel does not even support ext4. Ubuntu 12.04 LTS runs with the current coLinux kernel (2.6.33.7) but Arch Linux does not.
