Hi, Experts,

I often hear people mention SLES 9 SP3 or SP2. I know how to find the SP number on SLES 10 by the out put of 'cat /etc/issue'. However, on SLES 9, it does not explicitly display the SP number. So how can I find this piece of info?

I suppose I could use 'uname -r'. For instance:

Code:
[Linux|bash] 65 => cat /etc/issue

Welcome to SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (ia64) - Kernel \r (\l).

[Linux|bash] 66 => uname -r
2.6.5-7.244-default

Someone told me this is SP3. But is there a way to tell? Or I have to simply memerize it?

 
Thank you, Khalid. With your help, I also noticed that I could do 'cat /etc/redhat-release'.

Thanks again.
