Don't boot a 32 bit OS and chroot into a 64 bit one. That can be done

I always thought that is impossibl because the 32bit libs and kernel are
unable to execute 64bit code. You could do the other way round with no
probs but a 64bit cpu in 32bit mode with 32bit libs and kernel?
I really would like to know more about that.

You could be right. I know you can do a 32 bit chroot from a 64 bit install/media but not sure about the other way around. I think what I was trying to say is that mixing them requires different commands and needs to be asked about. I did a 32 bit install from my 64 bit system and it worked fine. I have not tried the other way around tho. Maybe someone can chime in on if this is possible or not. Since this is Linux, I wouldn't be surprised if it could but it may not be. I'm not sure how to stretch 64 out of 32.
