osinfo-detect - Detect the operating system on installable media or trees
osinfo-detect [OPTIONS...] PATH|URI
Examine the "PATH" or
"URI" to determine what (if any) operating
system it is for, and whether it is installable or is a Live image. By default
"PATH" or
"URI" will be interpreted as pointing to ISO
media. To request examination of an install tree instead, the option
--type=tree should be given.
The output information is formatted for humans;
- --format=plain
- --type=media|tree
- Switch between looking for CD/DVD ISO media (media, the default) or
install trees (tree)
- --all
- Report all operating systems with matching media, instead of only the
first match.
The exit status will be 0 if an operating system was detected, or 1 if none was
found.
