Xubuntu 26.04 Minimal ISO with 32-bit UEFI (Intel Atom Bay/Cherry Trail Support) need modified iso

Hello everyone,

I found a guide explaining how to add 32-bit UEFI GRUB support to modern Linux distributions for Intel Atom devices that have a 32-bit EFI firmware but a 64-bit CPU.

Unfortunately, I do not have another Linux computer available to perform the ISO modification myself. My tablet is currently unable to boot Linux, so I cannot follow the guide and rebuild the installation image.

I would like to kindly ask if someone could create a modified version of xubuntu-26.04-minimal-amd64.iso with 32-bit UEFI boot support already included.

The target devices are Intel Atom Bay Trail and Cherry Trail tablets (such as Z3735, Z3736, Z8300, Z8350, and similar models) that are limited by their 32-bit EFI firmware.

I believe many users with these older Atom tablets would benefit from a ready-to-use ISO that can boot without requiring manual modification.

If anyone is willing to help or provide such an ISO, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you very much for your time and assistance.

There are severe differences between Ubuntu variants and Fedora variants. I suggest to ask this question in the Ubuntu community:

I close this because I see a high risk that deriving a solution for Ubuntu from Fedora experiences might end up in very bad and dangerous practices. Hope that make sense :classic_smiley:

Also, Ubuntu ISOs are definitely off-topic for ask.fedora :wink:

I very much doubt that 10+ years old hardware with 8GB disk space, 32 bit limitation, and 1GB RAM (?) are any useful in 2026…

I have a door here, that needs propping open. And a table with a wobble come to think of it.
