If the only reason you need 64-bit is to access all your memory, you  
can do that with a 32-bit linux distribution.  You just need to  
recompile the kernel with the appropriate value in CONFIG_HIGHMEM.   
This might work for you depending on your processor and the way you  
are using the memory.  See http://kerneltrap.org/node/2450/7217 for  
more details.
