Hi Corey,

I have launched your script in my chroot (after installed 'hwtools'), but I got these errors:

$ sh temptests.sh all
Running test: test_idle
cat: /sys/bus/i2c/devices/0-0290/temp1_input: No such file or directory
temptests.sh: line 85: / 1000: syntax error: operand expected (error token is "/ 1000")
