Is there a technical reason why 32bit Cygwin cannot be installed on

How exactly does it "refuse to install" ? If it says "mbox : Cygwin is not supported
on 32-bit Windows", you may not have followed the instructions at
https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2022-November/252542.html, which say:
This links to
https://cygwin.com/install.html#unsupported
which contains those instructions (and is kept up to date).
I'm not entirely sure how the OP managed to obtain an x86 installer,
without coming across those instructions.
