If you can get an install you may then have to change it to 16-bit.

If it can wait another week or two, I'd hang on. It's almost certainly not worth your while installing Community, unless it is so urgent that you can't afford to wait for Official. Community is rather like a late-beta, and feedback from the community generates bugfixes that are included in Official. If you can get the install started, use Expert mode for the partitioning tool, but apart from that you can probably just accept the default offering for almost everything. There are plenty of tools to make it easy to change things later. Near the end of the install there is a summary page, and you should look at each section there, under the Configure button.
