+Currently, the only &arch-title; subarchitecture that

+In the case of Macintosh, you must retain the original Mac system and
+boot from it. It is <emphasis>essential</emphasis> that, when booting
+MacOS in preparation for booting the Penguin linux loader, you must
+hold the <keycap>shift</keycap> key down to prevent extensions from
+loading. If you
+don't use MacOS except for loading linux, you can accomplish the same
+thing by removing all extensions and control panels from the Mac's
+System Folder. Otherwise extensions may be left running and cause
+random problems with the running linux kernel.
