Subject: [PATCH qemu-web] _download/windows.md: Drop 32-bit Windows support
Date: Tue, 20 Feb 2024 18:06:18 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240220180618.158100-1-peter.maydell@linaro.org> (raw)
32-bit Windows is no longer a supported platform for QEMU, and both
MSYS2 and Stefan Weil have stopped building 32-bit packages of it.
Remove the no-longer-working i686 pacman rune, and state explicitly
that 32 bit Windows isn't supported.
Fix a grammar nit in the page while we're here.
