+ <title>Description</title>
+
+ <para>Various OS components process SMBIOS Type 11 vendor strings that a virtual machine manager (VMM)
+ may set and a virtual machine (VM) receives. SMBIOS Type 11 vendor strings may play a similar role as
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>kernel-command-line</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
+ parameters but generally are under control of the VMM rather than the boot loader or UKI.</para>
