This usually means: mount the root partition under /mnt, then other partitions
at the appropriate mount points under /mnt/whatever, e.g., /mnt/user,

Yes it is if you're trying to run programs from the installed system within a
chroot, which you won't be able to do as they are 64-bit executables.

I would recommend a 64-bit version of the rescue disk.

64-bit Knoppix or similar would be better, I think.
