Hello everybody,
 I'm beninese. I like too much the qubes project and i began tryin the os. But to install it, i have some problem like dat "Error:not 64bit CPU". My laptop is a toshiba satellite pro L300 which support 32bit OS. How can i do to install qubes os on my laptop? or is qubes also running with 64bit CPU.

Thanks

The most important things from that page:


General system requirements

Minimum:

4GB of RAM
64-bit Intel or AMD processor (x86_64 aka x64 aka AMD64)
Intel GPU strongly preferred (if you have Nvidia GPU, prepare for some
troubleshooting; we haven't tested ATI hardware)
At least 20GB of disk (Note that it is possible to install Qubes on an
external USB disk, so that you can try it without sacrificing your
current system. Mind, however, that USB disks are usually SLOW!)
Fast SSD disk strongly recommended

I had to google it, seems to be a country in west Africa.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benin

It is cool Qubes is getting so widespread :-)
