1. What is latest i386 live image available in some archive?
I guess:
https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/archive/11.9.0-live/i386/iso-hybrid/
That solves a plethora of problems! Thank you.
At least the pages for archived Live ISOs for Debian 12 list no i386
any more:
https://cdimage.debian.org/mirror/cdimage/archive/12.1.0-live/
2. I have a working machine that will take a current full install
of an i386 system. Can an average user create his own i386 live
install image?
Well, there is the manual
https://live-team.pages.debian.net/live-manual/html/live-manual/index.en.html
Reviewing table of contents indicate that sections 8, 9, and 10 have
answers to questions I didn't know _how_ to ask ;}
The section "4.2 First steps: building an ISO hybrid image" looks like
you could get a quick ride.
https://live-team.pages.debian.net/live-manual/html/live-manual/the-basics.en.html#170
Looks doable.
At least I'll learn enough to ask answerable questions.
"execute the following sequence of live-build commands to create a basic
ISO hybrid image containing a default live system without X.org."
If it doesn't work, then debian-l...@lists.debian.org would be the list
to ask for help.
Have a nice day :)
With your reading list it should be educational. Thanks again.
Thomas
