Hi!

Does anyone know a program for FreeBSD (w/o GUI) which would be able to display information about current hardware which is installed in the box?

Thanks!

How about something like this:

#as root: pciconf -lv

3

okay. :doh:

but is there any way to see information about the motherbard? Because pciconf lists only devices on the motherboards buss.

and, for example, how much RAM does the machine have. what HDD I have (ie vendor)

Okay, just for reference, the solver of this thread:

dmesg | less pciconf -lv | less sysctl -a | grep ^hw | less sysctl -a | grep ^dev | less

Note that instead of piping to less to scroll through massive amounts of data, you can also pipe to grep in order to look for a certain string. For example:

dmesg | grep mem

…would give me a list of all the lines in dmesg containing the string “mem”.
