system 76 laptop with 32 bit live cd?

[patjennings]

I wanted to know if it would be possible to install 32 bit mav meerkat on a system 76 lemur (or any sys76 laptop that comes with 64 bit) using a live cd. Also is the process the same as on my previously windows laptop (compaq cq60). Will I have to reinstall drivers or anything like that. Thanks in advance.

It is possible, as 64-bit processors are backward compatible with 32-bit programs. The process would likely be very similar to your old laptop, though we do have instructions for installing the System76 Driver, which, apart from providing any drivers or fixes for the system, also is handy for support purposes. Those instructions are here: http://knowledge76.com/index.php/Restoring_Your_System, and they're applicable to both 64-bit and 32-bit installations.
