Few of you knew that CentOS 7 Linux was distributed until now only for 64-bit (x86_64) and ARM64 (AArch64) architectures, but being one of the most requested features, the RHEL-based operating system is now also available for 32-bit (i686) platforms. The 32-bit edition of CentOS 7.1-1503 is currently in Beta stages of development, so it has been made available for download only as a boot.iso image that basically allows you to boot the operating system and then start adding packages from the Internet to get a complete installation.
