We need your help ... It was asked on the mailing list here a few weeks back if there was a file that consistently displayed the board model/make information ... there isn't.
We have developed a heuristic that might easily generate "PC Engines APU2", "Qotom Q190G4N-S07", etc. for the associated hardware, with a small text database file. Currently this database looks like this: https://github.com/astlinux-project/astlinux/blob/master/package/system-vendor/system-vendor.ids We would like to crowd-source various hardware you are using for AstLinux. No need to submit entries we already have defined, but confirming the 8-character fingerprint would be good if you want. For those of you that have different hardware, this is the process to generate a "system-vendor.ids" entry. Any relatively recent version of AstLinux will work ... =============================== ## Using the CLI on AstLinux, change to a non-persistent directory $ cd /tmp ## Download "system-vendor.sh" from GitHub $ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/astlinux-project/astlinux/master/package/system-vendor/system-vendor.sh ## Generate an entry for your hardware ## Replace "XYZ Hardware Model" with a fitting model name ## Report back the output via the mailing list $ bash system-vendor.sh XYX Hardware Model 12345678~XYZ Hardware Model ## Cleanup $ rm system-vendor.sh =============================== Relay your results by replying here, or email me directly if you want. This "system-vendor" feature is a work in progress, and we may end up disabling it, but if our heuristic works it would be nice to include in the next release.
