How would i find the installation date of my OS.

I m using following linux distribution.

Code:

# lsb_release -a
LSB Version:    :core-3.1-ia32:core-3.1-noarch:graphics-3.1-ia32:graphics-3.1-noarch
Distributor ID: OracleVMserver
Description:    Oracle VM server release 2.2.0
Release:        2.2.0
Codename:       n/a


# uname -a
Linux  2.6.18-128.2.1.4.9.el5xen #1 SMP Fri Oct 9 14:57:31 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

You can try to look when the filesystem is created

Code:

root@cannabis repo]# tune2fs -l /dev/root | grep created
Filesystem created:       Fri Aug 27 23:07:14 2010
root@cannabis repo]#

Kind regards

You could check the contents of install.log and install.log.syslog to find the date.
