+Description:
+		READ:
+		  Describe the state of all the slots of the beaglebone capemgr.
+		  Each line of the output describes a slot:
+		  The slot format is as following:
+		  <slot-id>: [P-][F-][O-][l-][L-][D-] \
+			  <overlay-id> <board-name>,<version>,
+			  <manufacturer>,<part-number>
+
+		Where the flags are:
+		P: Slot has been probed
+		F: Slot has failed probing (i.e. no EEPROM detected)
+		O: Slot has been overridden by the user
+		l: Slot is current loading
+		L: Slot has completed loading and is ready
+		D: Slot has been disabled
+
+		Example:
+		0: P---L-  -1 BeagleBone RS232 CAPE,00A1,Beagleboardtoys,BB-BONE-SERL-03
+		1: PF----  -1
+		2: PF----  -1
+		3: PF----  -1
+
+		WRITE:
+		  Writing a string of the form <part-number>[:version] issues a request to
+		  load a firmware blob containing an overlay. The name of the firmware blob
+		  is <part-number>-[version|00A0].dtbo. This act is defined as a slot override.
+
+		  Writing a negative slot id removes the slot if it was an overridden one, or
+		  unloads a slot that was probed.

+Description:	Contains the probed base board EEPROM field; one of:
+		board-name		- board-name as stored in cape EEPROM
+		dc-supplied		- whether the cape draws or supplies DC
+		eeprom-format-revision	- EEPROM format rev, only 00A0 supported
+		header			- header; should be 'aa 55 33 ee'
+		manufacturer		- manufacturer string
+		part-number		- part-number of the cape
+		serial-number		- serial number of the cape
+		version			- version of the cape, i.e. 00A0
+		number-of-pins		- displayed but ignored
+		pin-usage		- displayed but ignored
+		sys-5v			- displayed but ignored
+		vdd-3v3exp		- displayed but ignored
+		vdd-5v			- displayed but ignored
