This distribution is definitly wrong. ia64 is only for Intel Itanium 
type cpu. This is quite different to Intel Xeon!

So you could try debian sarge-amd64 
(http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/unofficial/sarge-amd64/)

Or the 'normal' ia32 distribution.

If you are unsure please consult an EM64/AMD64 newsgroup or list (there 
are some - ask google).

HTH, cheers Wolfram
