README: More consistent and readable white space

NOTES on "make config":

|

- having unnecessary drivers will make the kernel bigger, and can

under some circumstances lead to problems: probing for a

nonexistent controller card may confuse your other controllers
|
||||
|
||||
- compiling the kernel with "Processor type" set higher than 386
|

will result in a kernel that does NOT work on a 386. The
|
||||
kernel will detect this on bootup, and give up.
|

|

- A kernel with math-emulation compiled in will still use the
|
||||
coprocessor if one is present: the math emulation will just
|
||||
never get used in that case. The kernel will be slightly larger,

have a math coprocessor or not.
