Thanks Robert. You are correct, the manual should be updated to use
another BSP. It should probably use something other than a meta-intel
BSP as well. FRI2 was a good example as it used several features we
wanted to call out... but not so much any more. The example is still
valid, but it doesn't have a real-world parallel, which I suppose is a
problem.

Cc Scott for however he would prefer to track this.
