ia32 chroot problem!

[Michele Concina <psycosm1981@yahoo.it>]

Hello!
I tried to install an ia32 chroot on my system following the how-to 
instructions, but i've met this error:

I: Configuring base-config...
W: Failure while configuring base packages.  This will be attempted 5 times.
W: Failure while configuring base packages.  This will be attempted 5 times.

W: Failure while configuring base packages.  This will be attempted 5 times.

is it possible to solve it or is it a bug?
thank you,
