This depends. Is your kernel compiled as a 64-bit enabled kernel, or is it still 32-bit only? If you have a full 64-bit kernel, then you can use the chroot path. However, I suspect that since you have a 32-bit OS, your kernel compiled in the same manner, so you could either use the reboot option, or compile yourself a 64-bit kernel ( making sure you enable the 32-bit compatibility option).
