[Bhargava m.k.]

what is the command to find i/o devices in linux.

[skt_skt]

look at the sub dir under /proc like scsi, ide, etc..

Also see "iostat" output.

[Stuart Browne]

dmesg
lspci
lsusb
lsmod
cat /proc/scsi/scsi
cat /proc/meminfo
cat /proc/ioports
cat /proc/interrupts


Really, it does depend on what type of IO device you are looking for. Combinations of these will show you pretty much everything in the system.

But you may be better off just viewing '/etc/sysconfig/hwconf' (which is what kudzu maintains).

[dirk dierickx]

try the 'lshw' command as well.

lshw doesn't come with most Linux distros,I think. Anyway,as was said it is one of the most informative.

To find disks/partitions I usually use "fdisk -l", for the rest - /proc + /var/log/messages (or dmesg).
