Description of problem:

RHEL 7.3 beta install guide does not list PowerLE as supported on bare-metal

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7-Beta/html-single/Installation_Guide/index.html#sect-installation-planning-hardware-compatibility-ppc says in section 8.2:

"Starting with version 7.1, Red Hat Enterprise Linux also offers a little endian variant for IBM Power Systems. This variant is only compatible with POWER8 processors, and is only supported as a KVM guest, not on bare-metal hardware."

However, RHEL 7.2 introduced support for bare-metal installs.   

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/html-single/7.2_Release_Notes/index.html#chap-Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux-7.2_Release_Notes-Architectures says:

"Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2 (little endian) is currently supported as a KVM guest on Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization for Power, on PowerVM and PowerNV (bare metal)."

The release notes for 7.3 beta look correct.   Just not the install guide.
