$ echo `cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep model | cut -d "," -f 2 | tr "[A-Z]" "[a-z]"`
model : 23 model name : intel(r) core(tm)2 quad cpu q9300 @ 2.50ghz
model : 23 model name : intel(r) core(tm)2 quad cpu q9300 @ 2.50ghz
model : 23 model name : intel(r) core(tm)2 quad cpu q9300 @ 2.50ghz
model : 23 model name : intel(r) core(tm)2 quad cpu q9300 @ 2.50ghz

is that what we want ?

I think we need an option to turn it on or off and or make it
configurable from a BSP layer. We are looking for a way to make a rfs
for all e500v2 or e500mc, etc and say the right machine type on the
prompt.

This sounds like something that really does belong in your own
supplementary layer, rather than oe-core.

Seemed like a valuable option for making rfs for multiple machines /
targets, but if we don't want it (or some of the bits) in oe-core
that's fine by me too.

At the very least its powerpc only since it gives crazy results on other
arches. Does it work for all powerpc machines? Its also adding 4 execs
to every boot and those calls mount up and impact boot time.

On ARM it will be empty:

root@beaglebone:~# echo `cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep model | cut -d "," -f 2 | tr "[A-Z]" "[a-z]"`

root@beaglebone:~#

This seems to fit well to a BSP init script; seems to be very machine
specific so it doesn't seem to be supported by other arch and
machines.
