Because that is a 32-bit (not 64-bit) processor. There is an AltArch 32-bit CentOS-7 distro as well: http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/isos/i386/ > > Works like a charm without any fiddling with an alternate DE like I > would have > with C7. I have no complaints. C6 does also use less resources than CentOS-7, so this might be the best bet in any event, but I did want to point out an alternative does exist. Things like EPEL and ElRepo do not exist for the CentOS-7 32-bit distro either, so the experience is somewhat limited as well. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
