I have heard that others have had success with mock, but the easiest way
is to use setarch. Instead of

    livecd-creator --config=...

try

    setarch i686 livecd-creator --config=...

(You might find it burps until you install some .i686 packages, but if
so, you'll need to try it to find out what they are.)
