we grabbed the iso file dated 20220702 and burnt it to a cd-r on 20220818 and have used it several times with success since then.

note: upon further consideration you were probably inquiring more as to the image version to be written to some form of flash media and we have NOT used that version.

tbh was just refrencing the multi arch (as per title)
because booting has (at least from my perspective)  become fragmented
 bios/uefi
 32/64 bit

this appears it should handle most of the posible hw setups and ther in be 'portable'
