It stands for "Return Material Authorization" and means that you get a
number to stick on your broken hardware you want to ship back to the
vendor for repair.
If you're running something not included when you bought it, or on a
usually very short compatibility list, then most vendors I've
encountered so far are _very_quick_ to tell you that you broke the
hardware because you used non-approved software, and/or that you need
to verify first if your hardware is also broken under their
pre-installed crap, and file a bug stating the kind of breakage with
their pre-installed software (usually).
Best,
