We don't support such configuration for a very long time, so there's no
point of keeping references to that feature.

## DISCLAIMER

Whilst it is possible to run Serenity on physical x86-compatible hardware, it is not yet ready to be used by non-technical users who aren't prepared to report bugs or assist with its development. For this reason, there are currently no pre-built install images so a bare-metal installation requires that you build an installation image from source. Current hardware support is extremely limited. Most successful hard disk installations have been on Pentium 4 era hardware but by [network booting Serenity](NetworkBoot.md) users have been able to get it running on more modern hardware such as Core i5 machines.
