How can I install an amd64 to my new bought Laptop/



Hi,
   I bought a new Laptop a few days ago, it's an X220i, and I planned
to install a amd64 system on it
   I dump a netinst iso(amd64) image to a flash disk by dd, boot and
try to work with it, but I found it just cannot use. :(
   it's so easy to get crash after some trivial commands, such as 'tar
xjvf', 'rsync -av', etc. The system just hang after dumping some info,
I can't write them down entirely, too much content, I saw the keywords
are about 'SMP', 'protecting'...
   Another two things I have tried:
   1. I boot my old X61 with the same usb, It works OK with the
previous deadly commands..
   2. I change to an i386 image, It works fine with my new X220i and
the same commands.
   I hope to install the amd64 and I need your assistance! thank you!!

   //btw, another thing to complain :(
   I think it's very inconvenient to work with a netinst iso that lack
of wpasupplicant! The WLAN and wpa/wpa2 authentication is so
ubiquitous nowadays, It's annoying to find a UTP cable..
