Did anyone "migrate" from 32 bit to 64 bit. I was thinking of trying a 
process similar to migrating from wubi to a full install:
http://popey.com/blog/2009/07/16/migrating-from-wubi-to-full-ubuntu-install/

Specifically the

$ dpkg --get-selections > listfile

part.

Would this work? I assume it would if the packages are named the same, 
but from a different repo?

If no one has, I'll try it and write up the results.
