No, everything is X86_64 as it should be.
While I am not exactly certain what's going on it appears that there are
compatibility issues between the amdgpu driver and kernel 6.8, perhaps
compounded by the fact that no displays are connected to my system.
For now, I have disabled kms and am trying to get the dummy video driver
for X to work which will be the subject of my next post.
