Is there a way to obtain the amount of physical memory installed in a system from within SuSE 10 console? This is for a script. $ cat /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 526525152 kB [...] $ Or to be more specific: cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemTotal Or to be even more specific cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemTotal|awk '{print $2}' Or, to be more parsimonious: % grep -h MemTotal /proc/meminfo |awk '{print $2}' If I knew anything at all about awk, I'd know whether it could handle the selection (grep) part, too, but I don't.
Just for the record: awk '/^MemTotal:/{print $2}' /proc/meminfo
