[Discord] <wsy1> Does it support 32 bit?
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <wsy1> Only not using armbian because current build is broken on pbp
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <narga_64> ARM32 is not supported if that's what you mean. It's a desktop OS, I don't think you'll still get support for 32 bit for anything apart from Armbian lol
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <wsy1> Sadly I need it for box86
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <wsy1> I need both box86 and 64 for running steam
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <narga_64> Running 32bit *software* should work. I was referring to your CPU architecture.
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <wsy1> Manjaro doesn't support 32 bit apps that is why I asked
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <narga_64> Well you'd have to test or research, I haven't used 32 bit stuff in like 15 years.
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <narga_64> Be wary though, newer Armv9.2 CPUs do not have any 32bit instruction support at all anymore. It's been long enough š
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <wsy1> Sadly we need the 32 bit support for x86 emulation
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <wsy1> Sadly we need the 32 bit instruction support for x86 emulation
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <wsy1> Sadly we need the 32 bit instruction support for x86 emulation in box86
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <narga_64> Strange. Maybe you'll find a workaround not needing 32bit instructions.
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <narga_64> But if your CPU supports it, there's nothing really stopping you from manually installing a software if it's not in the OS package repo
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <mecoblock> Iām not sure about rockchip64 quirks. Is it safe to go from beta to non beta? Is it just changing the apt repo?
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <infinity_q> look up debian `multiarch`
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <wsy1> As in a chroot?
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <infinity_q> no, it's a way to install 32 bit libraries and apps on a 64 bit system.
