Tried this command in slax
uname -o which according to man uname
-o, --operating-system
print the operating system
Slax is based on Slackware Linux, here's the result(s)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cat /etc/slax-version
Slax 6.0.7
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# cat /etc/slackware-version
Slackware 12.1.0
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# uname -o
GNU/Linux
It is GNU/Linux. Should this be tried with Ubuntu, Suse, Gentoo, ..., etc?
Let's see:
rpm -qf `which uname`
coreutils-6.10-27.fc9.x86_64
and of course rpmq -i coreutils:

Summary : The GNU core utilities: a set of tools commonly used in shell
scripts
Description :
These are the GNU core utilities. This package is the combination of
the old GNU fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages.
So, you want to use a GNU utility to "prove" that the OS is GNU/Linux?
Sounds rather like GNU made an assertion and is using that assertion as
a proof.
BTW, I wouldn't have expected a package of GNU utilities to say anything
else.
