Although many say "64-bit is well established, no

At one point, I was maintaining two parallel Debian systems,
one 32-bit and one 64-bit, to track down such issues.
Some disadvantages to mixed systems, from the amd64 faq

Great document, thanks for the pointer.
Unfortunately, this entry is what keeps biting me:
Is there no flash plugin for mozilla?
No. If you really need to access such webpages, install mozilla and
flashplugin-nonfree in your 386 chroot and use the 32bit browser to
access the sites.
I watch a lot of YouTube, and I've been missing Flash on my 64 bit
machine. Thanks for suggesting the 32 bit chroot.
