# Script enhancement has been done base on Bug YOCTO 10844.
# Configuration can be done in meta/conf/machine/*.conf variable SERIAL_CONSOLES.
# Most of the information is retrieve from /proc virtual filesystem which
# contain all the runtime system information (eg. system memory, device mount, etc).
