SYNOPSIS

       inventory_firmware  [-h  |  --help]  [-c  config-file  ]  [-o  | --over

       --verbose ]

DESCRIPTION

       inventory_firmware  scans  hardware, and emits human-readable names for
       firmwares installed in that hardware.

OPTIONS

       -h     Print help text

       -c config-file
              Use  the  alternate   system   wide   config-file   instead   of
              /etc/firmware/firmware.conf

       -o | --over section,key,value
              Override  values  in  firmware.conf  with new values as section,
              key, and value.

       -b | --bootstrap
              Output results same as  bootstrap_firmware.   All  command  line
              options  are  passed  to  bootstrap_firmware.   You  should  use
              bootstrap_firmware directly instead.  This  option  is  provided
              for historical backwards compatibility only.

       -u | --up2date_mode
              Generate  tags  suitable  for  consumption  by Red Hat Network's
              up2date program.

       -a | --apt_mode
              Generate tags suitable  for  consumption  by  Debian's  aptitude
              program.

       -v | --verbose
              Print additional information.

FILES

       /etc/firmware/firmware.conf
              The system wide configuration file.
