Great news!
Is this what you used? <http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/8.4.0/multi-arch/iso-dvd/debian-8.4.0-i386-amd64-source-DVD-1.iso>
Just checked, that is the one.
If it is multiarch install, why does it have "source" in its name?
Can't tell from the website, but maybe this dvd also has the source packages?
Does it really support exactly two architectures, i386 and AMD64?
Can this image be dd'ed to a USB stick and booted from that? The documentation sys that is possible for i386 and AMD64, but does not mention multiarch.
That's what I did and the procedure listed in the installation guide. At the boot menu I selected 64bit graphical install. At the boot loader install I witnessed it installing the needed 32bit uefi grub binaries. This was the expected result based on the docs. https://wiki.debian.org/UEFI#A32-bit_x86_PC_.28i386.29_support_for_UEFI
I hope you come to dinner so I can get you to show me on one of my computers.
See ya there!
