The test script did not get executed, after the change, it just exits. One
way to fix it is to use
device_no=`echo $tttype | cut -c 9-`
But I guess it is better to change #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash rather than
change every usage of bash features. It is much more convenient and
maintainable to write test cases in bash rather than sh.
