+	  Use me_cleaner.py to partially deblob the Intel ME/TXE firmware.
+	  The resulting Intel ME/TXE firmware has only the code responsible for
+	  the very basic hardware initialization, leaving the ME/TXE subsystem
+	  essentially in a disabled state, but still allowing the system to
+	  power on correctly.
+
+	  WARNING: this tool isn't based on any official Intel documentation but
+	  only on reverse engineering and trial & error. Even if this tool seems
+	  stable on multiple platforms and architectures, it still might lead to
+	  unexpected behaviours.
