Nope, there is no specific AMD64 version (unlike most Linux
distributions).  It's just x86.  The fun comes when you install from
that media, the Solaris kernel will load in either 32-bit or 64-bit
depending on if the machine supports one or the other (or both).

One thing to note, the Installer itself *always* runs in 32-bit mode so
don't be alarmed.  Once your installed and reboot, the Solaris kernel
will do the right thing.

Cheers,
