x86 32bit image

Is it feasible to make a 32bit build of the Juicebox guest image? Looks like boxcutter has them.

Ran into a problem here where some devices don't have a CPU that supports the necessary instructionset to run 64-bit guest machines.

@shazow hmm you might actually be able to enable virtualization through the BIOS. I think @sezalcru ran into this a while back too.

That is correct, enabling "Set Virtualization" from the BIOS should do the trick.

Thanks for the suggestion! I added a reply mentioning that.

If 32bit images are out of scope for the project, feel free to close the issue. If you have any pointers for how to build them myself, I might give it a try. :)

@shazow I'm giving it a try but slow internet. You could download this template and try running:

$ packer build desktop-i386.json

@shazow seems to be working for me. Unfortunately docker won't work on 32bit.

@shazow just pushed the working templates to this repo. Won't probably publish an image just yet, but feel free to do so yourself.

@jpadilla Thanks!
