* prologue/why: another "device" -> "device nodes" changeXi Ruoyao2022-10-181-1/+1

* prologue/standards: rewrite LSB descriptionXi Ruoyao2022-10-181-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Well, somehow this paragraph has become too imprecise. 1. We don't support IA64. Both Intel and AMD uses x86_64 now, which is referred as "AMD64" because it's first proposed by AMD. Intel attempted to use IA64 (which is a VLIW architecture completely different with x86_64) to compete with AMD64, but failed. Then Intel adapted x86_64. 2. The architecture specific part belongs to Core and Desktop. 3. LFS cannot conform to both AMD64 and IA32 because we don't support multilib. It's "or", not "and".
