[SOLVED] Backing up 32 bit hardware with Clonezilla on Ubuntu x86-64 bit OS

I setup a Clonezilla DRBL server with Ubuntu Server 64 bit. I'm now trying to backup a server with a 32bit CPU and I'm getting the following error:

This kernel requires an x86-64 CPU, but only detected an i1586 CPU.

Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU.

Is there any way to get this to work? Should I have installed the 32 bit version of Ubuntu Server?

Thanks!

*UPDATE*

I figured out a workaround. I can use the Clonezilla LiveCD and connect to my Clonezilla DRBL server via NFS. :-)
