+Most ARM CPUs may be run in either endian mode, however almost every
+current system implementation uses little-endian mode. Debian

+
+This is actually the name for the group of machines
+based upon the StrongARM 110 CPU and Intel 21285 Nothbridge it
+comprises machines are: Netwinder (possibly one of the most common ARM
+boxes), CATS (also known as the EB110ATX), EBSA 285 and Compaq

+
+This is a modern ARM 920 board with a 266MHz Samsung
+processor. It has integrated IDE, USB, Serial, Parallel, audio, video,
+flash and two ethernet ports. This system has a good bootloader which
+is also found on the CATS and Riscstation systems.

+<term>RiscPC</term>
+<listitem><para>
+
+This machine is the oldest supported hardware it was released
+in 1994. It has RISC OS in ROM, Linux can be booted from that OS using
+linloader. The RiscPC has a modular CPU card and typicaly has a 30MHz
+610, 40MHz 710 or 233MHz Strongarm 110 CPU fitted. The mainboard has
+integrated IDE, SVGA video, parallel port, single serial port, ps 2
+keyboard and proprietay mouse port. The proprietary module expansion
+bus allows for up to eight expansion cards to be fitted depending on
+configuration, several of these modules have Linux drivers.

+
+This is an inexpensive 56MHz 7500FE based machine with
+integrated video, IDE, PS2 keyboard and mouse and two serial
+ports. Its lack of processing power was made up for by its price. It
+may be found in two configurations one with RISC OS and one with a
+simple bootloader.
