also it is really necessary to have an option of which arch type to install, because i was really planning to set it up on my older 300mhz i386 comp that just cannot start installation process, but my old hard with debian +KDE is working on it well. and i wanted to set up a new clean installation with openbox or lxde and this is why i've been trying to install it on virtual machine, but occasionaly it was 64bit too because i was trying solaris on it before, so my plan kinda failed because it was auto process that installed 64bit os and not 32.

why the text mode is actually not text???
i thought i can do whole process in the shell - you got some pretty shell interface (in mcc) that i really liked
