I'm confused.
I have 2 old-fashioned 32 bit i386 machines.
What is/will be last release with installer?
TIA

The 32 bit installer is no longer part of the weekly build in
preparation for trixie.

Does anybody read signatures any more?

Richard,

The last point release of Debian 12 - probably 12.11 or 12.12 if we keep up
the release cadence we're following. Maybe June 2026 a year after the
release of Trixie in June 2025??

Last release of Debian 11 should be 11.11 on 31st August 2024. That's
following transition from Debian security support to LTS.

At this point, 32 bit Intel/AMD hardware should be considered fit
for recycling for the precious metal content.

All the best, as ever

As those two machines are not connecting to outside world adding
additional software after the first few months won't be an issue.
{one machine still has WinXp ;/

Thank you.
