Gunter,
Thank you for responding and taking the trouble to extract the information for us.
The inxi command shows your CPU type even if it does not report the 'bits' information.
As far as I can tell, the single core Intel Pentium M CPU dates back to 2003 and was only ever 32 bit.
Unfortunately all current versions of Linux Lite require 64 bit hardware.
We cannot recommend installing the older 32 bit versions of Linux Lite like Lite 3.8 as they are not supported since 2021.
Last time I checked (a couple of months ago) there were still a few Linux distributions which claimed to be 32 bit compatible.
The rules of this forum ask us not to discuss/recommend other brands so I'll not go further.
I wish you good luck.
steve
