On June 2, 2015, Johnny Hughes posted this reply to that question:

All,

The Beta release of the 32-bit (i686) Architecture of CentOS-7 (1503) is
currently on build logs.


Right now, only the boot.iso is available, but after some testing from
the users here with feedback, we can spin another tree with fixes and
actual installer isos.

http://buildlogs.centos.org/centos/7/os/i386/

updates are also here:

http://buildlogs.centos.org/centos/7/updates/i386/

Current known issues are:

1.  If installing on a QEMU (kvm) i386 VM, you must modify the VM cpu to
use "copy host cpu"

2.  The gnome desktop will not exit or log out from the menu.

If someone can figure out how to fix this issue, it would be much
appreciated :)

======================

Please report bugs on bugs.centos.org or to this Centos-Devel mailing
list will we do the beta testing and lets see if we can find/fix all the
issues before the full release of this arch.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
