I don't know about Java. If you mean for Etch, then for Flash you'll need to set up an i386 chroot. For a basic guide, there's the amd64 howto on debian's website. Basically, you need some free space. If you like, it can be a separate partition that you mount somewhere, if not just some space. Personally, looking at the fhs, the most appropriate place to put it was under /srv, so I have /srv/chroot/etch-ia32 Install debootstrap on the amd64 etch system, then use it to install a base i386 system under the chroot directory. Install schroot on the amd64 etch system. I posted to a debian list today my schroot.conf file. Then you run commands from the amd64 with e.g. # schroot -pc etch-ia32 /usr/bin/aptitude Then install whatever apps you need. Note that you will not need a kernel installed in the chroot.
