As far as I am able to tell there are currently two amd64 debian releases it: amd64.debian.net/debian or /debian-pure64 (your choice, one is a symlink) amd64.debian.net/debian-amd64 The difference between amd64 and pure64 I am actually not sure of, but they are not the same given files in each dir has different time stamps. I keep a chroot of each on by i386 sarge machine so I can play with programs from both (I mostly need i386 so that's what I installed on the machine, the 64bit is just for playing with, hence the chroots for that). The is also a gcc4.0 based release on the ppc machine somewhere (off alioth as far as I recall) which I have not looked at, since it seems to be the more experimental release.
