Yes Windows requires UEFI to match in bit level. > Eventuelly I managed to create a bootable USB key.

At least in Debian 8, I believe the only media to support 32bit UEFI was the i386/amd64 multiarch net install image. I know I have used that one successfully on an intel system with 32bit UEFI. I didn't check if Debian 9 has similar limits on 32bit UEFI support in the installer. It is a pretty rare system type to encounter fortunately. -- Len Sorensen
