Could the Release Notes include a component that matches CPU model with
appropriate distribution version?
Many 64 bit CPU's exist, but it can be difficult to determine whether
they should have the i386 (which no longer works with the i386, from the
Release Notes, and so should be renamed) or the amd64 version of the
distribution, installed.
Some people may know the answer, but, for the rest of us, we are just
left in the dark.
For example the (relatively) new range of CPU's (which are prbably now
out of date), that are the I<x> range, eg, I3, I5, I7, are (I believe)
64 bit CPU's, but the Release Notes do not indicate whether these should
have the 32 bit or the 64 bit version of the districbution, installed.
So, it would be useful for the Release Notes to include a list of CPU's,
and show which is the appropriate version of the distribution, for each
CPU model.
