Hi Tony,
I tried your idea..

norv@pan64:~$ dchroot -c ia32
Executing shell in 'ia32' chroot.
norv@pan64:~$ logout
norv@pan64:~$ cd /home/norv/install_flash_player_7_linux/
norv@pan64:~/install_flash_player_7_linux$ ./flashplayer-installer

ERROR: Your architecture, \'x86_64\', is not supported by the
       Macromedia Flash Player installer.

norv@pan64:~/install_flash_player_7_linux$

It seems to have jumped out of the chroot and tried to install the
plugin in the 64bit Firefox..
Thanks,
Norv
