10 osinfo-detect [OPTIONS...] PATH|URI
11
13 Examine the "PATH" or "URI" to determine what (if any) operating system
14 it is for, and whether it is installable or is a Live image. By
15 default "PATH" or "URI" will be interpreted as pointing to ISO media.
16 To request examination of an install tree instead, the option
17 --type=tree should be given.
18
19 The output information is formatted for humans;
20
22 --format=plain
23 --type=media|tree
24 Switch between looking for CD/DVD ISO media (media, the
25 default) or install trees (tree)
26
28 The exit status will be 0 if an operating system was detected, or 1 if
29 none was found.
