Assuming this is true, I suggest two things are done to make sure d-i work on 32-bits kvm guests on a lenny based kvm host. (1) base-installer is changed to detect 32-bits kvms and to not propose amd64 kernels in this situation. Not quite sure how to detect 32-bit kvms. (2) a bug is repoted against some kvm related package, to try to get it to stop listing the lm CPU flag for 32-bit kvm guests. Not quite sure which package it should be reported against. Perhaps qemu-kvm? I've asked the kvm maintainer to provide input in this bug, to see if we can figure out a good way to solve it.
