** Description changed:

  As per the comment in config.install.armhf.template, SAY is not
  implemented in the uboot on highbank.  However, there is a SAY command
  in config.local.template and that breaks booting of a deployed node.
  Removing the SAY command makes it work.
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ This bug prevents highbank machines to localboot when instructed by PXE from MAAS.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 1. Install MAAS
+ 2. Add a highbank machine
+ 3. Deploy a machine (wait for it to install and reboot).
+ (Without the fix, the machine will fail to PXE boot. With the fix, it will pxe boot and then localboot succesfully)
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Minimal. This change simply removes a line that is only used to display a message when PXE booting.
