SYSINFO(1)                  General Commands Manual                 SYSINFO(1)



NAME
       sysinfo, sysupdate - report information about, update the system

SYNOPSIS
       sysinfo [ -e e-mail ] [ -p ]
       sysupdate [ -i ]

DESCRIPTION
       Sysinfo executes a number of commands that report information about the
       hardware and software configuration of the running system,  concatenat‐
       ing the output to stdout.

       The  -p  flag  causes  the  output  to  be posted at a website archive,
       http://sysinfo.9front.org, which in turn  forwards  the  message  to  a
       mailing   list,  9front-sysinfo@9front.org.   A  URL  pointing  to  the
       archived output is returned.  The -e flag causes a reply-to e-mail  ad‐
       dress to be included in the message (the e-mail address is not divulged
       to the mailing list).  These flags are useful  for  reporting  new  in‐
       stalls to the development team.

       Sysupdate  updates the local mercurial repository by executing the fol‐
       lowing commands:

       bind -ac /dist/plan9front /
       hg -v pull -u

       If the -i flag is included, the command hg incoming is prepended.
