Devuan 6.0 has no 32-bit edition?

I did not find any announcement about this. Was 5.0 the last 32bit release?

Yes. Debian has dropped 32bit kernels with Trixie.

There are discussions on the forum about this.

If you don't need proprietary firmware, you can use the linux-libre kernel:
https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/l … sh.en.html

You can install that in a daedalus system and upgrade to excalibur, or upgrade first then install the new kernel.
You could instead create a new excalibur system in a chroot, install linux-libre and then convert it to a disk image.
