🎀 OWNERSHIP(8) 🎀 — System Manager's Manual ✨

💖 NAME

okay so the manual name is ownership and it's a Compaq ownership tag retriever 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS

ownership [OPTIONS]

🦋 DESCRIPTION

okay so ownership is the one that goes and fetches and prints the "ownership tag" that can be set on Compaq computers 🖥️

bestie, this one is lowkey different from every other program in the dmidecode package 😭 it doesn't print any version info, and it doesn't print labels either. it just prints the raw ownership tag, no extras. ngl that's so helpful for scripts because they can grab it cleanly 🫶

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

  • -d, --dev-mem FILE — read memory from device FILE (default: /dev/mem) 💜
  • -h, --help — display usage information and exit 🍓
  • -V, --version — display the version and exit ✨

🧚 FILES

  • /dev/mem 🌈
