So I guess my syrescuecd is 32 bits. Using the amd64 handbook did the trick with the kernel. Now onto learning about uefi. Thanks for your help!

Generally, 'uname -m' should report x86_64 for 64-bit (amd64= ) and i686
for 32-bit (x86).

uname -m did give x86_64,= but...
=C2=A0
... another check= can be 'file /sbin/init' which will report as something along the = lines of
"/sbin/init: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV),
dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for
GNU/Linux 2.6.32, stripped"

file /= sbin/init gave ELF 32-bit LSB...

So I guess my syrescuecd= is 32 bits.

Using the amd64 handbook did the trick with = the kernel.=C2=A0 Now onto learning about uefi.=C2=A0 Thanks for your help!=
