Hi Rob,
I seem to remember (from a while back when I did installations on early 64bit hardware) that there is an x86_64 architecture, which is somewhere between 32bit and true 64bit architectures. I think this might be what you are using. There should be distro support for it.
Hope this helps,
Tim B.
