Navigation of Fedora Core 6
Hi. Not sure if this should go in the beginners section, so forgivness please if it's not correctly placed.
I just installed Linux Fedora Core 6 on my home computer (and am very very new to this) so I can learn more about it. However, I am looking for the FC6 equivalent to the System Device Manager tab on the control panel in Windows. I want to know where to access such information as Hardrive name, capacity, Processor info, RAM, DVD Name, mouse port...things of the like. Although as sinple as it may seem, I cannot find the information!
I have browsed the Applications, Places and System tabs without luck. So could someone point me in the right direction here?
Thanks very much.

Bootloader::Core::LILO(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Bootloader::Core::LILO(3)
NAME
Bootloader::Core::LILO - LILO library for bootloader configuration
PREFACE
This package is the LILO library of the bootloader configuration
SYNOPSIS
use Bootloader::Core::LILO;
"$obj_ref = Bootloader::Core::LILO->new ();"
"$files_ref = Bootloader::Core::LILO->ListFiles ();"
"$status = Bootloader::Core::LILO->ParseLines (\%files, $avoid_reading_device_map);"
"$files_ref = Bootloader::Core::LILO->CreateLines ();"
"$status = Bootloader::Core::LILO->UpdateBootloader ($avoid_init);"
"$status = Bootloader::Core::LILO->InitializeBootloader ();"
DESCRIPTION
"$obj_ref = Bootloader::Core::LILO->new ();"
Creates an instance of the Bootloader::Core::LILO class.
"$files_ref = Bootloader::Core::LILO->ListFiles ();"
Returns the list of the configuration files of the bootloader Returns undef on fail
"$status = Bootloader::Core::LILO->ParseLines (\%files, $avoid_reading_device_map);"
Parses the contents of all files and stores the settings in the internal structures. As first argument, it takes a hash reference, where
keys are file names and values are references to lists, each member is one line of the file. As second argument, it takes a boolean flag
that, if set to a true value, causes it to skip updating the internal device_map information. Returns undef on fail, defined nonzero
value on success.
"$files_ref = Bootloader::Core::LILO->CreateLines ();"
creates contents of all files from the internal structures. Returns a hash reference in the same format as argument of ParseLines on
success, or undef on fail.
"$status = Bootloader::Core::LILO->UpdateBootloader ($avoid_init);"
Updates the settings in the system. Backs original configuration files up and replaces them with the ones with the '.new' suffix. Also
performs operations needed to make the change effect (run '/sbin/lilo'). Returns undef on fail, defined nonzero value on success.
"$status = Bootloader::Core::LILO->InitializeBootloader ();"
Initializes the firmware to boot the bootloader. Returns undef on fail, defined nonzero value otherwise
