SYNOPSIS
osinfo-detect [OPTIONS...] PATH|URIDESCRIPTION
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; to obtain machine readable output, the option "--format=env" should be given to produce shell-like key/value pairs.
OPTIONS
- --format=plain|env
- Switch between human readable output (plain, the default) or machine readable output (env).
- --type=media|tree
- Switch between looking for CD/DVD ISO media (media, the default) or install trees (tree)
EXIT STATUS
The exit status will be 0 if an operating system was detected, or 1 if none was found.COPYRIGHT
