You did that in the 32-bit chroot, right? I wouldn't expect the config to 
cause the compilation failure you reported. But ok, your problem now is only 
the crash.

That message is an error during shutdown cleanup, the real error happens 
before - but it seems no message is printed, which is possible (even though a 
bit strange).

At this point I don't see why you can't simply use the working config and 
modify it - however I _do_ see 1 problem:

CONFIG_3_LEVEL_PGTABLES=y

This works on x86_64, but is unstable on i386. In fact at some point you had a 
crash, right? This config option should be able to explain that (but not a 
compilation failure). So disable it, and things should work.

If they don't, there is:
> CONFIG_M686=y
< CONFIG_MK8=y

This shouldn't give problems but I can't bet on this. I know that both M686 
and MK8 compile. However, play with this only after checking the main 
suspect, i.e. the first one.
