For the 32 bit ISO, we really need testing on 32 bit machines. When
you run into snags please report the bugs. If it is the installer, and
it sounds like it is, please run (before you reboot) `ubuntu-bug
ubiquity` in the commandline and describe the issue on the bug
tracker. Take note of the bug number and enter that number into the qa
tracker ( http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/387/builds )
and follow the test instructions. If you are unable to finish the
"case" successfully, it is a fail.

If we are going to provide i386 images for people who have 32-bit
machines, they need to work for them. If we can't, we shouldn't
provide them.

Thanks so much for your help, folks! I need your reports on the qa
tracker for them to count.
