Hi everyone, just wondering i installed 64bit ubuntu 8.04 by mistake and its pissing me off (im sure 64bit is good and all but im new to ubuntu and need something a bit easier)

so i wanna go to 32bit instead

is there anyway in the current install i can down grade or wat ever from 64bit to 32bit besides having to re-install it?

thanks

A. What might be the problem, exactly? I don't use Ubuntu so I know nothing about their 64bit OS but, should be workable.

B. As for downgrading, no. You'll need a fresh reinstall. You can probably salvage config files from your ~/ folder to a CD or whatever media you wish. Otherwise, a clean install is all you got.
