[RFC] unified i386/x86_64 install media.

[Sir Gallantmon]

I think it's just an i386 kernel, since they do offer an x86_64 (which they
call amd64) version that has all 64-bit. "generic" just refers to being the
baseline kernel for the distribution. Both amd64 and i386 have generic
kernels and packages that add onto it in Ubuntu.
