[Bug 751018] Re: i386 installer CDs are named improperly

[Ralph Green]

Howdy,
 Something like that would seem to be a good idea.  But, it was
explained that the names come from the debian names an won't change.
I did discover that Debian no longer supports 386, with 486 being the
lowest chip they compile for.  They document this better than Ubuntu.
Good day

Title:
  i386 installer CDs are named improperly

Status in Ubuntu CD image build software:
  Won't Fix
Status in “ubuntu-meta” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “ubuntu-meta” source package in Natty:
  Won't Fix
Status in “ubuntu-meta” source package in Oneiric:

Bug description:
  There are several installer images with i386 in their name.  These
  won't install onto i386 machines since the release of Maverick.  They
  need at least i686 machines.  The CDs should be renamed with i686 in
  their names.

  I am not sure if this should be reported as a bug or rather in some
  other way.  It is not a question.
