35 for maximizing the chance to get the most correct value before we decide to use a fixed value (1=desktop)
36- Fixed display cosmetics of UUID, now a convert.c file contains all
37 conversions api, to be completed by function that we should reuse.
38

40 only if overriden
41- Kept SystemID as the only option to change manually the system-id

54- Added "system-type' automatic injection (1=Desktop) plus override possibility
55 with the new system-type option in bootConfig
56- Added SMserial and SMproductname new options for smbios.plist
57- Merged with asere patch, while keeping my fake_efi.c changes, and adding a new
