Thanks, One more question. Can I continue to use my same 64bit compiler when compiling images for both?
In the other words, Are both of these ok? Make CROSS_COMPILE=my-compiler-path- i386_defconfig Make CROSS_COMPILE=my-compiler-path- all Make CROSS_COMPILE=my-compiler-path- x86_64_defconfig Make CROSS_COMPILE=my-compiler-path- all Where my-compiler-path is the gcc compiler that I use to generate 64 bit code.

The i386 config is for 32-bit OS, ie, the entire binaries must be build for 32-bit architecture. So choose the correct config provided u have the correct userspace files/libraries to support it.
