When you enter 'yocto-bsp create' you get usage information returned to the screen. The second paragraph and last sentence screws up the word 'parameter'. "The possible values for the 'karch' paramter can be listed via 'yocto-bsp list karch'."
Typo appears not only in usage (yocto-bsp create), but in help also (yocto help create).
