I no longer remember the exact version. I tried it for several versions of 15.10 and none of them worked for 32 bit. My machine is also 64 bit but I wanted to install Ubuntu on a friend's machine with 2GB, so I downloaded the 32 iso file and burned it. The 32 bit iso failed every time with every usb stick I tried. dd always worked, so that is what I used to do the job. (Likewise the Xubuntu iso failed for 32 bit.)
