[arch-general] Change installation from 64-bit to 32-bit

Hi all,

I installed 64-bit arch on a low memory laptop (1G) not thinking about the
higher memory requirement.

Now I wonder, whether I can approach to change it by changing the pacman.conf
entry

Architecture = auto
to
Architecture = i686

and reinstall all explicitly installed packages.

I feel like it should work.

Any "don't do that"s, "go for it"s, "I did it"s out there :o)).
