One thing you have to watch our for is that the final system is built by 
the output of config.guess. which relies on uname -m. If your host is 
running a x86_64 kernel chances are uname -m will report x86_64 and 
config.guess will then say x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu. causing major 
headaches. The easiest way to work around this is to load a uname hack 
into the kernel. making uname -m report i686 (or whatever you choose). I 
don't currently have a updated version for newer kernels handy. I'll see 
if I can dig one up / hack one together.
