Which _model_ Macbook is it? [About this Mac under MacOS]
If you run hwinfo under Debian- what does it say?

For Macs of this vintage: (2006/2007 Core 2 Duo)
iMac 5,1 – iMac 5,2 – iMac 6,1

MacBook Pro 2,1 – MacBook Pro 2,2
Mac Pro 1,1
Xserve 1,1 (maybe)
They have a 32 bit EFI and a 64 bit processor.
You might want to try with the Debian multi-arch CD which might sort it
out.

32b upgrade to 64 b; Boot.plist
Hi beautiful ideals!
Decided to install Virtual Machine & Docker in this 14 year old ex-Macbook.
In which I installed Debian "Buster" i386 32 bits. As some of you know, I
did some failures during installation, the dvd player "hung" a bit several
times, so I saw it installing at least 3 times. I made a puzzling
observation: 64 came up a lot of times, but the machine seemed to handle
it. ("Is it 64 bits anyway?" I wondered.)
Now I found the following information in Wikipedia:
" Mac OS X 10.6 is
the first version of macOS that
supports a 64-bit kernel .
"
n Snow Leopard, most built-in applications have been rebuilt to use the
64-bit x86-64 architecture
(excluding
iTunes , Front Row
, Grapher
and DVD Player
applications).[43]
They
will run in 32-bit mode on machines
with 32-bit processors, and in 64-bit mode on machines with 64-bit
processors.
A change to the com.apple.Boot.plist will also enable users with compatible
computers to permanently boot into 64-bit for those wishing to do so.
After upgrading the kernel from 32b to 64b, if advisable & possible.
How to do that? Clean reinstall I guess optional, but will that suffice?
