Hello. I am trying to find the specifications of a number of (old-ish) computers: their CPU speed, the size of their RAM and the size of their hard disk. I boot them using a Knoppix cd, text only mode and then I can easily find the former two (they are in /proc/cpuinfo and /proc/meminfo respectively), but is there an equally simple way to determine the size of the hard disk(s)? I know there are other ways to find the hard disk size --looking into the bios, opening the computer and reading what it says on the disk-- but it would save me so much time if I could find it using a simple command. I thought df -hT would do the job, but for some reason it always shows a 2GB /KNOPPIX partition on /dev/cloop and some smaller partitions. Thanks.
