How to check My Linux OS is 64 bit or 32 bit ?


Hi,

$ uname -m
x86_64
That shows that my Linux Box has 64 b bit CPU. But how to find OS type?

Please suggest as it is urgent.

Thanks in advance

"uname -a" will show OS info.

Please post your thread in only one forum. Posting a single thread in the most relevant forum will make it easier for members to help you and will keep the discussion in one place. This thread is being closed because it is a duplicate. Please, follow the discussion here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...os-4175425873/.

And please, don't demand urgent help. LQ is a community of volunteers that freely spend their time to answer questions and help others to solve their issues. In these circumstances, claiming urgent help is a pointless rudeness.
