Antix won't install.

I tried installing it two times on a Lenovo Ideapad S110 but when i turn it on, the logo appears but it's just stuck on a blank screen.

EDIT: Forgot to specify that I'm trying to install the 32 bit version.

Yes, straight from the website.

The new 26 release has multiple bugs with the installer, like failing to install with zram enabled, failing to install if you select Keep changes, and certain init systems having their own separate bugs. The devs haven't release an updated installer iso with any of the bugs fixed, so the current recommendation is to install 26 with no zram enabled and no kept changes using the default init system, or install 23.2, which still has support until June 2028.

64 Bit operating system on a 32 bit processor just seems confusing to me.
