Testing pre-release 3RC dualcd on i586

When mounting partition in the rescue system it offers the choice of mga2 & mga3, both i586 installs, but says..

1: Mageia (Cauldron) 3 i586 on /dev/sda7 (cannot be rescued: i586 ne x86_64;)
2: Mageia (Official) 2 i586 on /dev/sda1 (cannot be rescued: i586 ne x86_64;)

Comment 1 claire robinson 2013-04-19 12:12:17 CEST 
I think this may be invalid.

Dualcd is actually installing 64bit which I never considered as it's only a P4.
If it works afterwards I'll close.
Comment 2 claire robinson 2013-04-19 12:29:17 CEST 
Yep, invalid!

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => INVALID

Comment 3 Thierry Vignaud 2013-04-19 18:43:26 CEST 
Indeed i586 rescue can only salvage 32bit installs.
