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