HXCOMM architectures.
HXCOMM HXCOMM can be used for comments, discarded from both texi and C
-HXCOMM TODO : when we are able to change -help output without breaking
-HXCOMM libvirt we should update the help options which refer to -cpu ?,
-HXCOMM -driver ?, etc to use the preferred -cpu help etc instead.

@findex -boot
Specify boot order @var{drives} as a string of drive letters. Valid
drive letters depend on the target achitecture. The x86 PC uses: a, b
format(true color). The resolution should be supported by the SVGA mode, so
the recommended is 320x240, 640x480, 800x640.
+A timeout could be passed to bios, guest will pause for @var{rb_timeout} ms
+when boot failed, then reboot. If @var{rb_timeout} is '-1', guest will not
+reboot, qemu passes '-1' to bios by default. Currently Seabios for X86
+system support it.
