    hello everyone,

    I'm a linux beginner so I have to apologize if the question is trivial. CannI install Lilidog on my Lenovo Thinkpad T61 computer? The cpu is a 32 bit cpu. Is this cpu supported?

    thanks in advance.

    Howdy and welcome,
    There is currently no 32 bit image, but I will gladly build one and add it to the downloads section.
    Should be available tomorrow:)

    Oh, I didn't expect that at all. Thank you so much! I look forward to installing lilidog.

    Okie dokie, Uploaded an i386 version with a pae kernel. If you have under 2G ram, you may want to find alternatives to the browser, email, and writer programs. Let me know how it goes!

    Thank you so much for compiling a 32 bit version. I'm downloading the iso already :-) I will let you know how the installation works.

    Howdy, Don't own a 32 bit box, so difficulty testing certain issues. Apparently you may need to boot with the kernel parameter 'forcepae' if you have difficulties, as the pae kernel can be an issue. I may switch to a non pae kernel if this is a problem.
