 Supported Operating Systems
 ---------------------------
 
+Since Salt is written in Python, the packages available from `SaltStack's corporate repository`_
+are CPU architecture independent and could be installed on any hardware supported by Linux kernel.
+However, SaltStack does package Salt's binary dependencies only for ``x86_64`` (``amd64``) and
+``AArch32`` (``armhf``), which is limited for Debian/Raspbian 8 platforms.
+
+It is recommended to use ``git`` bootstrap mode as described above to install Salt on other
+architectures, such as ``x86`` (``i386``), ``AArch64`` (``arm64``) or ``ARM EABI`` (``armel``).
+You also may need to disable repository configuration and allow ``pip`` installations by providing
+``-r`` and ``-P`` options to the bootstrap script, i.e.:
+
+.. code:: console
+
+  sudo sh bootstrap-salt.sh -r -P git develop
