In the past, I used to identify the type of device by reading the file /proc/device-tree/compatible. For example, see this:
> hexdump -C /proc/device-tree/compatible 00000000 74 69 2c 61 6d 33 33 35 78 2d 62 6f 6e 65 2d 67 |ti, am335x-bone-g| 00000010 72 65 65 6e 00 74 69 2c 61 6d 33 33 35 78 2d 62 |reen .ti,am335x-b| 00000020 6f 6e 65 2d 62 6c 61 63 6b 00 74 69 2c 61 6d 33 |one-black.ti,am3| 00000030 33 35 78 2d 62 6f 6e 65 00 74 69 2c 61 6d 33 33 |35x-bone.ti,am33| 00000040 78 78 00 |xx. | Last night I upgraded to a new build. I installed this one: https://rcn-ee.com/rootfs/bb.org/testing/2017-10-08/stretch-iot/BBB-blank-debian-9.2-iot-armhf-2017-10-08-4gb.img.xz Now I see that same model no longer identifies itself as a BBG. it now thinks it is a BBB: > hexdump -C /proc/device-tree/compatible 00000000 74 69 2c 61 6d 33 33 35 78 2d 62 6f 6e 65 2d 62 |ti,am335x-bone-b| 00000010 6c 61 63 6b 00 74 69 2c 61 6d 33 33 35 78 2d 62 |lack.ti,am335x-b| 00000020 6f 6e 65 00 74 69 2c 61 6d 33 33 78 78 00 |one.ti,am33xx.| 0000002e Did I install the wrong build? Is this a bug, or is there a new/better way for me to identify the difference between BBB, BBG, BBGW, etc?
