DESCRIPTION

This class contains internal functions used by PiFlash to store command-line parameters, input & output file data, available device data and program logs.

PiFlash uses the device info to refuse to write/destroy a device which is not an SD card. This provides a safeguard while using root permissions against a potential error which has happened where users have accidentally erased the wrong block device, losing a hard drive they wanted to keep.
