Normally you just install those as normal. 32 bit binaries usually run |
| 8 |
on AMD64 without modification. For example, I have openoffice-bin, |
| 9 |
firefox-bin and vmware-workstation, all 32 bit packages, running on this |
| 10 |
amd64 box. |

The chroot is only needed if you want to build 32 bit binaries. |
