It would be nice also to simply disable this script in case an apus amiga model
is detected, since it will hang the machine (i can send you the corresponding
/proc/xxx file so that you can check for it, if you need).
Also notice that the above mentioned problem should be solved in the current
implementation of linux-util, but not yet in the debian version.
