Since you are basically building a 32-bit system in an environment |
| 12 |
similar to what you used to build your original system you would |
| 13 |
simply need to install the appropriate software into the 32-bit chroot |
| 14 |
environment. Once you have rpm and the Debian utilities installed you |
| 15 |
should be able to install packages from RPM or DEB although you will |
| 16 |
probably have to force the installations. I should mention that I |
| 17 |
myself am still quite new to using a 32-bit chroot environment on a |
| 18 |
64-bit system so I may not have all of my facts correct but hopefully |
| 19 |
this is enough to get you on your way. |
