ia64 is Itanium, and is not em64t, and is not compatible with em64t. EM64T is intel's implementation of the AMD64 architecture. The port of Debian/amd64 is almost official (but not quite, so it can't be found in the usual places yet). CD/DVD images for AMD64 can be downloaded from http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/sarge-amd64/ although most AMD64 machines are quite new, so you might have better success using an installation image with a newer kernel. This image can be found at http://tinyplanet.ca/~lsorense/amd64/ --Ken Bloom -- I usually have a GPG digital signature included as an attachment.
