You mean that if I say
debootstrap --verbose lenny testdeb/
There is no way to let it know that I want amd64... I've got the point!
I do read the replies. At least I believe so.
But then the installation instruction above should be possible to accomplish
if I boot from live cd (amd64) and execute from there.
Thanks for the discussion. It's really interesting to me, because I'm
