Since you didn't specify "which" arch you want to install, or exclude, it matches the first one it hits, which is the i386 version. This has been covered at quite some length in the mailing list archives, on the order of around 2-3 times a month. Mostly, you can exclude the x86 arches, or give the install a specific arch to look for. Search the archives for exact syntax. -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act. George Orwell
