-If this tag is present and @samp{optional} is set to @samp{0} information
-conveyed by requested tag types must be present. If bootloader is unable
-to supply this information it must fail with an error
address@hidden is an array of u32 each one representing an information request.
 
-Note: it doesn't garantee that any tags of type @samp{mbi_tag_types} will
-actually be present. E.g. on a videoless system even if you requested tag
address@hidden no tags of type @samp{8} will be present in mbi.
+If this tag is present and @samp{optional} is set to @samp{0} bootloader must
+support (understand meaning of) requested tag(s) and be able to provide 
relevant
+information to image if it is available. If bootloader do not understand 
meaning
+of requested tag(s) it must fail with an error. However, if it support a given
+tag(s) but information conveyed by it/them is not available bootloader can do 
not
+provide requested tag(s) in Multiboot information structure and proceed 
further.

+Note: Above means that there is not guarantee that any tags of type 
@samp{mbi_tag_types}

@samp{8}
+and bootloader support it no tags of type @samp{8} will be present in Multiboot
