Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

The problem is you fill your machine with enormous code -assuming imperfect structures- that may never ever be used and code that spends it time checking, or worse still code that is not optimised for your processor.
Perfect code is minimised for code space or speed and optimised for versatility.
Better then to use the code designed for your architecture.
Anyway, I bet the 64bit code wouldn't work anyway on a 32 bit machine.
On the other hand all the 64 bit code hasn't been written yet for many apps.
