Debian stretch 32 bits

[ignaciomartinCFR]

Hi!

We manage a network of about 7.000 computers running Debian Stretch 32 bits.

These days without use due to coronavirus...

We can deploy software in background, installing .deb but only if they have no gui.

We would like to help, which version should we install?

Thanks!

I've enquired upstream for you. I know there are a few 32-bit CPU projects still around, but I'm not sure if any relate to COVID-19.
Debian Stretch should not be a problem. You may need at least one PC (possibly remote) with a GUI to monitor the other 7,000.
Do your computers have GPUs? I'm guessing not....
EDIT: I'm told 32-bit Linux is no longer supported. Sorry, and thanks for asking.

Thanks david!
No GPUs, dual-core CPU.

Hello again,

Finally we have deployed a 64-bit VM, on the 32-bit OS, because the CPU itself is 64 bits.

Our team is "Guadalinfo".

Due to the current situation, most of our centers are closed and the pcs turned off, but we have asked that the pcs be turned on as far as possible.
