I have a 32-bit system that I would like to migrate into 64-bitness within
the same basic framework, within the same "install".  That is, can I go from

32-bit kernel-arch + 32-bit userland =>
64-bit kernel-arch + 32-bit userland =>
64-bit kernel-arch + 64-bit userland

within Debian Squeeze or Wheezy, or Bodhi Lucid or Precise?  Without a clean
install?

I was thinking that multiarch might help this happen.

Advice?
Yes. You can add the AMD64 architecture then install an AMD64 kernel, reboot into it and you're running a 64bit system.

I suspect there is more to it than that, but I've done it in the past and it did give me a bootable 64bit system.
