Dear Gents,
I am struggling with G7 HW related information. I need to get so called volume serial number ID. If I fire command inxi I am just getting N/A value for volume serial and I can not proceed with my application instalation because of I need those HW indentifiers for licensing purposes. Is there any way how to get volume serial number which shall be just 8 digits? Why this ID is hidden or not available at all with standart linux commands? Many thanks for any valuable advice. Thanks Andy, BR

This seems promising but our supplier is saying just about 8 character value.
