For Dream of the Untouched Land, what orientation should the new board be placed in? Can it use Archipelago rules?

It's not specified, so you choose any orientation that would be legal during setup and fully interlocks with a side of the target board. You may not use Archipelago rules, as that is not "next to".
If all three interlockable edges of target board are accounted for (e.g., if target board is the "face" of the standard 5-player "crab" layout), then you can use any legal interlocking position that has a corner-to-corner adjacency with target board, even though that's not strictly "next to" target board. In the rare case even that isn't possible due to setup restrictions (e.g., Oceans being aligned during the Great River scenario, thematic boards all having only one possible position and orientation), you fail to add the new board and probably should have used the Power somewhere else.
