It seems "supported device list" in the INSTALL docs should be updated.
(Are they generated from distrib/notes/i386/hardware?)
I have just modified the list a bit, but it seems that
"must be configured as follows" list should contain
only non-PnP device (=mostly ISA) configurations.
BTW, Machine-Independent supported device list are needed?
(as our web pages)
