Well, I prefer the "system type" you says then the hardware platform, because, in fact, there is already a "platform" where you choose the processor and so on. I said "distro" because they call distro not just the entire different linux distribution, also a derivative distribution or a flavor one. At least in Spain. As I was creating target for install different fsets and trying different configurations it was what made more sense for me. I'm afraid is not any good translation for "system type" either, but your point of view give me some light about the different meanings of "target" in MIC context.
