Hi!
can someone kindly tell me how can i see the specs of my systemhardware?!
like... how many/what kind of processors, harddisks,memory etc i have.

I have tried

/sbin/lspci
dmidecode
lspci -vv

but still i don't get all the info about my hardware !

could someone kindly help me out with this!
thanks a lot!

PS: i am using centos4

lshw may not be installed by default on your distribution; check your package manager.

thanks for reply!

lshw doesn't work indeed.
and with /proc/meminfo i don;t get to see how many modules of 1GB(or 512 mb) have been installed.
what i can't get to see anywhere is the info about the harddisks.
how many are there and what size.

any ideas?!

For hard drives, fdisk -l will show you partition and disk structure (you should need to be root to run it).

What you're really looking for is what lshw outputs. Have you tried installing it?

Take a look at hwinfo and lshw. They are not usually installed by default, so you may have to install them from your distros software repositories or compile from source. If you need a GUI app try hardinfo.

thanks a lot for the info.
very handy though.
but i am looking for linux commands that can give me info like Sysinfo gives! I gues there would be seperate commands(or a script) to get to know this info?!

I don't know what "sysinfo" is, but a quick google for "sysinfo" showed this script:

http://www.pixelbeat.org/scripts/sysinfo

I presume it's not what you meant, but it's something nevertheless. It seems to just run most of the commands we've suggested, except for lshw and hwinfo.

thanks a lot once again!
its not exactly what i meant but its good enough.
i have also found a similar kind of script at:

thanks for your help!
