how to find what version pi you are using

So i was wondering the other day how to show what raberry pi i had, rather than opening it up.

you can install lshw and it can list all your hardware

Install it with

BASH

uname -r

which should give you something like this (but probably not exactly this... hopefully)

 

BASH

sudo lshw

 

Here is what it found on mine:

BASH

.raspberrypi
    description: ARMv7 Processor rev 5 (v7l)
    product: Raspberry Pi 2 Model B Rev 1.1

If you want to see what version of rasbian you are running use the command:

BASH

uname -a

uname by its self does not give much useful info...

The problem with hoarding is you end up living off your reserves. Eventually, you’ll become stale. If you give away everything you have, you are left with nothing. This forces you to look, to be aware, to replenish. . . . Somehow the more you give away, the more comes back to you.
