Installed Distribution

[sting]

Is there a way to determine which distribution of Angstrom Linux is installed on my BeagleBone Black? The latest available seems to be a 2013/06 date. How does one know if that distribution is on my device?

Angstrom doesn't use most of the standard Unix/Linux utilities, but `uname -a` should work on pretty much anything. I think there should also be a file named /etc/angstrom-version.

Here is what the cmds returned on my BB from early 2012:

root@beaglebone:~# uname -a

Linux beaglebone 3.2.5+ #1 Mon Feb 13 19:22:44 CET 2012 armv7l GNU/Linux

root@beaglebone:~# cat /etc/angstrom-version
