So this is different to the Pegasos? *sigh*

With SmartFirmware 1.2 I got the following assignments for "name" and
"device_type":
console type: | serial keyboard/display
-------------------------------------------------
stdin name | failsafe keyboard
stdin type | serial keyboard
stdout name | failsafe bootconsole
stdout type | serial bootconsole
-------------------------------------------------
This is different for Efika? Or does it change with every SF release? :|
