Advice on implementing a Power On Self Test ( POST) on Linux ?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM3894

Can anyone offer advice or personal experience on implementing a POST for Linux?

Basically a test that can be run to check hardware is alive such as:

  • Ethernet
  • Video
  • USB
  • Touch-screen
  • Flash
  • Discrete I/O ( GPIO or I2C)

Is there something like POST already in Linux?

Thanks in advance,
