I can do a lsb_release -a and I get:
Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 12.10 Release: 12.10 Codename: quantal From: Jared Morrow [mailto:ja...@basho.com] Sent: Thursday, November 01, 2012 11:42 AM To: Kevin Burton Cc: riak-users@lists.basho.com Subject: Re: Riak installation on Ubuntu Server Kevin As far as I know, the lsb_release tool is installed by default on all Ubuntu installs. You can use it to get the codename of the release like: For Ubuntu 10.04 $ lsb_release -c Codename: lucid or Ubuntu 12.04 $ lsb_release -c Codename: precise You can also get the information from the /etc/lsb-release file directly. % cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=12.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=precise DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS" Hope that helps, Jared On Thu, Nov 1, 2012 at 10:26 AM, Kevin Burton <rkevinbur...@charter.net> wrote: I was looking at the options of installing Riak and there are several options under Ubuntu: Lucid, Natty, and Precise.
