You do not need PAE with an AMD64 installation and your 64 Bit system
will not boot using a 32 Bit kernel. If you really, really want to have
a 686-PAE kernel then you need to enable multiarch.

Not if you don't tell us which packages you are missing (except for
kernel packages).

The set of packages is not necessarily the same for two differing
architectures.
