b91d620462 Now that I discovered that 164SX SRM recognises Intel 8255x NICs and allows 
them to be net booted lets document that fact.

924a8cd9d8 - Note that Adaptec 3940UW won't be recognised by the 164sx SRM 
- Warn that 164SX is a picky customer with regards to DIMMs.

87e469043b There is nothing but real hardware to verify things: 164sx can really 
run on non-ECC, plain vanilla PC133 PC SDRAM DIMMs.

Thanks to: obrien@ for the donation of a 164sx mlb.

4e702f5b14 Auto generate the device listings in the Hardware Notes based on 
manual pages, to avoid duplicating work between the Hardware Notes and
manual pages.

Each text line in the output from the manual page parser is generated
as a SGML entity, making it possible for translators to only translate
lines which actually contains English text (this neat idea came from
hrs).

To determine which drivers are usable on which architectures the
dev.archlist.txt file is used to explicitly list this.  It it an
imperfect solution, but the best I have been able to come up with for
now.

This commit converts most of the devices which has a section 4 manual
page with a HARDWARE section to be the new auto generated format.
