Sorry I misunderstood. I had a senior moment thinking about Debian Linux.

Did you want to move to Linux Mint 18.3?

oh, that's a nice netbook.
i used to have a slightly older acer aspire one, and that was definitely 32bit.
this one says dual core though, but afaiu that does not necessarily mean 64bit.
in any case, you should make sure to max out the RAM. takes some unscrewing, but worth the effort.

dear Ztcoracat and dear ondoho
I want Install any Mint which one is good for my notebook One D255-N55DQKK Make & Model :Acer Aspire It is have 1 GB ram ....Of course whit your help my friends
now in that notebook install Ubuntu and work very good ,, bout i like Mint

Is your Acer a 32-bit machine or a 64-bit machine?

What is the output of:

my friend Ztcoracat , I search in google ( how do I know pc is 32 bit or 64 bit in Linux ) and some one put there do this >> lscpu in terminal .. i did that come this

Please put this command in the terminal and hit Enter.
I have to be sure your machine is 32 bit or not.

This command will tell me if your machine is 32 or 64-bit.

Post what the command returned.

Ztcoracat my friend coming this ..32 bits physical , 48 bits virtual

^ you still didn'y do what ztcoracat asked, but your previous post shows this:
etc.
it's still a little ambiguous, but i'd say it can run a 64bit OS.

Thanks for running that exact cmd.
The lm flag is not present so your machine is not 64-bit architecture.

When you have time thejoseph go here and download Linux Mint 18.3 Cinnamon 32-bit.

If you don't want the Cinnamon DE let me know:-

my friend Ztcoracat I went there and start to download and say take a 9 or 10 hours..

That's an awfully long time.
