Sometimes Linux new users get confused while downloading a software because the download page offers them both 32 bit and 64 bit versions of the same software. It is important to know whether your Linux OS is 32 bit or 64 bit, as this information is required while doing various tasks.
In my this blog post i am explaining you that how can we find out if the Linux OS installed is 32-bit or 64-bit.
Run the following command on 64-bit machine:
[root@sashwat ~] # uname -m
x86_64
x86_64 represents a 64-bit kernel
Run the following command on 32-bit machine:
[root@sashwat ~] # uname -m
i686
i686 (or anyone of i386, i486, i586) represents a 32-bit kernel
For any query please feel free to contact me my email id is sashwatkatore@gmail.com.
