You also have to swap your memory boards (the current ones aren't fast enough).

And then you have to recompile everything (actually, but up a new release of
the O/S with 386 support - I understand it will compile to produce an 032-based
system).  But, don't forget to have all your user's recompile things in their
~/bin!
