serial-console-speed

A probe to tell us what the serial console speed should be for a given piece of hardware. This pre-supposed some knowledge of the hardware because you define the speeds in here instead of attempting to probe bios or something in the hardware in most cases (like x86).

#!/bin/sh
#
#
# figure out what serial speed we should tell bcfg2 to use.
# since there's no way to probe, we need to set this up by external
# knowledge of the system hardware type (and just make sure we
# standardize on that serial speed for that hardware class)

PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin; export PATH
# let's figure out what product type this is
