osinfo-detect - Detect the operating system on installable media or trees SYNOPSIS
osinfo-detect [OPTIONS...] PATH|URI DESCRIPTION
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. AUTHORS
