149 +<b>alpha</b> - Users that use a 2.4 kernel or don't want to use NPTL should use
150 +the default-linux/alpha/no-nptl profile. More information is available in <uri

156 +<b>ppc</b> - The merge of the ppc32 and ppc64 profiles went forward. The ppc32
157 +profile has been changed in a way that offers a minimalistic generic profile
158 +for all purposes, located in default-linux/ppc/ppc32. The release-dependent
159 +profile is optimized for desktop-usage and located in
160 +default-linux/ppc/ppc32/2006.0. There are some subprofiles available for G3 and
161 +G4 processors, and G3/Pegasos and G4/Pegasos for the Pegasos Open Desktop
162 +Workstation. Make sure you choose the correct subprofile for your system when
163 +migrating to a 2006.0 profile.
