Re: Installer: 32 vs. 64 bit

Perhaps this is a bad > default in the VM manaager? Yes, it was a bad default in the laptop's BIOS (VT-something was disabled). HP's bug, obviously, but it would have made for a better experience if the Debian installer had complained in a comprehensible manner straight away. >> - others attempt to install an i386 version on 64-bit hardware. > This should work, in general.

It was a recent laptop, and the user had manually enabled BIOS boot. The installer hung with a black screen just after the initial menu. > We should not do in this in the second case, since it is supposed to > work. (But a warning might be reasonable.)
