+	  There are five families of 32 bit PowerPC chips supported.
+	  The most common ones are the desktop and server CPUs (601, 603,
+	  604, 740, 750, 74xx) CPUs from Freescale and IBM, with their
+	  embedded 52xx/82xx/83xx/86xx counterparts.
+	  The other embeeded parts, namely 4xx, 8xx, e200 (55xx) and e500
+	  (85xx) each form a family of their own that is not compatible
+	  with the others.
 
-	  If unsure, select this option

-	  Note that the kernel runs in 32-bit mode even on 64-bit chips.
