This one single method will work in both 64bit and 32bit systems by using the 32bit flash natively, or emulating it. Either way, it uses nspluginwrapper, which will pull in a lot of libraries (packages), but most of them should be quite small.

Just download the .tar.gz archive manually into the folder of your midori-flash script (the script above copied and saved as midori-flash.sh e.g.), and edit the following line as below:

# wget http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/pdc/11.2.202.378/install_flash_player_11_linux.i386.tar.gz &&

Important: on the download site click "i need flash for another computer" and choose linux 32 bit, then the .tar.gz Version.
