NAME

6       osinfo-detect - Detect the operating system on installable media or
7       trees
8

SYNOPSIS

10       osinfo-detect [OPTIONS...] PATH|URI
11

DESCRIPTION

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;

OPTIONS

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
27       --all   Report all operating systems with matching media, instead of
28               only the first match.
29

EXIT STATUS

31       The exit status will be 0 if an operating system was detected, or 1 if
32       none was found.
