amd64 kernel compilation to arch/x86?

[sash1904]

i want to compile my kernel (amd64) and this works.

But it show's that the kernel is in arch/x86/boot/bzImage.

I'm confused, because the instructions manual tells, that the kernel should be in arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage.

Is it now 32 or 64 bit?

Does someone have an advice / explanation?

thanks for help
