The sysfs file system (normally mounted at /sys) is your friend, e.g: $ ls -l /sys/block/sda/device/driver lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2009-10-14 16:16 /sys/block/sda/device/driver -> ../../../../../../bus/scsi/drivers/sd But this just tells us that it's being driven by the SCSI disk driver (sd) which is kinda obvious. A lot more information is hidden away here however - you can use tools like udevinfo or systool to trawl the file system and output the information in a more readable format. To get all attributes for sda: $ udevinfo -ap /block/sda http://pastebin.com/m1fb2047d To get device attributes for all scsi disks on the system: $ systool -c scsi_disk -v http://pastebin.com/m263ebacc Regards, Bryn. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
