How to setup Local DB of Oracle XE on Windows 7 32-bit?

Hello,

I would like to use Local DB of Oracle XE on Windows 7 32-bit version.

However, as "LocalDbSetup.exe" is 64-bit module, we can't run in 32-bit OS to setup Local DB.

"LocalDbSetup.exe fails with error on windows 7 32 bit (Doc ID 2108717.1)"

To enable to use Local DB in 32-bit OS, I think out 2 ideas as follows.

(a) execute "LocalDbSetup.exe" from 64-bit OS against Local DB of Oracle XE in 32-bit OS.

(before executing it, I think I have to arrange tnsnames.ora, ODBC datasource, and tools.cfg correctly.)

(b) setup Local DB of Oracle XE on 64-bit OS, and then copy all Oracle XE database files into 32-bit OS.
