Bug Description

Dear all,

As explained in Bug #1025555 , 32bit iso systematically fails on UEFI computers, and the only way to use Ubuntu on such computers is to use the 64-bit iso.

As UEFI is becoming a standard and very common since 2010, 32bit iso should NOT be recommended for recent computers.
