I am trying to write a generic script that runs on SLES8, SLES9, and SLES9x and was not convinced that s390x really was good enough to signify 64-bit. From everyone?s responses, it sounds like x marks the spot. I will use uname ?m. Thanks to everyone that responded.

As others have indicated, uname is typically used. Why don't you like that method? Or, perhaps a better question, what would make some other method a "better way" for your purposes?

I guess I could issue a ?uname ?a? and look for the x in s390x but was hoping if there was a better way. Thanks.
