Since Uno and Mega has no Serial, replace Serial with Console at Bridge Sample IDE code

/*
  Write to file using FileIO classes.
 This sketch demonstrate how to write file into the Yún filesystem.
 A shell script file is created in /tmp, and it is executed afterwards.

  To see the Console, pick your Yún's name and IP address in the Port menu
 then open the Port Monitor. You can also see it by opening a terminal window
 and typing
 ssh root@ yourYunsName.local 'telnet localhost 6571'
 then pressing enter. When prompted for the password, enter it.
