this CPU is no longer supported on Debian i386 starting with trixie:

https://www.debian.org/releases/trixie/release-notes/issues.en.html#reduced-support-for-i386

trixie release notes (emphasis mine):

> From trixie, i386 is no longer supported as a regular architecture: there is no official kernel and no Debian installer for i386 systems. Fewer packages are available for i386 because many projects no longer support it. The architecture’s sole remaining purpose is to support running legacy code, for example, by way of multiarch or a chroot on a 64-bit (amd64) system.

and you are running forky/sid:
