I myself went through the same fun'n'games a couple of weeks ago - From what I could gather from Debian's docs, there are no "official" amd64 packages in Sarge, so I jumped in with Etch. Aside from a couple of hicups, everything appears to be running fine.
Zathras is mirroring both i386 and amd64 architectures, but I had to hack deb-mirror around a bit so that it didn't barf over the missing amd64 in Sarge.
(ot that this really helps to solve your problem).

Hi Paul,
Thankyou anyway! It would appear I inadvertently grabbed the wrong install iso the second time around so had the wrong kernel. (Hangs head). I've downloaded the correct one now and all may be well.
I've heard glowing reports about amd64, but I'm so unused to a different architecture that I've had loads of idiot problems like these so far.
Sorry!
Thanks,
Jenny
