As mentioned somewhere else in this thread, I think it's best to just
use "openfirmware" here instead of "slof" and "openbios"

Since you distinguish between 32-bit and 64-bit, we need both "ppc"
(32-bit) and "ppc64" (64-bit) here.

Please name that "s390x". "s390" without x means the old 31-bit
architecture which is hardly used anymore today. "s390x" is the modern
64-bit architecture.
