A common problem is that people confuse ia64 and amd64 with each other. I believe you have done so here because your symptoms match this frequently seen problem. The amd64 hardware exists widely but ia64 is much less common. Please verify the architecture of your machine. It is very likely that you are trying to install an ia64 image onto an amd64 architecture machine. In that case the solution is to use the amd64 installation image instead.
