Hi all
I've been asked by someone to give them the output of dmesg showing the
machine's hardware info. The man page reveals the following:
NAME
dmesg - display the system message buffer
SYNOPSIS
dmesg [-a] [-M core] [-N system]
DESCRIPTION
Dmesg displays the contents of the system message buffer.
The options are as follows:
-a Show all data in the message buffer. This includes any syslog
records and /dev/console output.
-M Extract values associated with the name list from the specified
core instead of the default /dev/kmem.
-N Extract the name list from the specified system instead of the
default /kernel.
Would someone please help me to get the required info?
<sigh>
TIA
