I'm the gentoo usermode-sources maintainer, and I run UML almost
exclusively on amd64. I have, at any given time, from 4 to 20 UMLs
running on my main dev box, most of them 32-bit, and I haven't had any
stability problems.
Is your RAM OK? Which kernels do you have inside and outside? How are
you trying to build the 32-bit UMLs?
