Thanks. For now I just hard coded it as the manufacturer could potentially
change whatever I setup in the yaml file. Yes, access to source cannot be
overrated!

pbdistrocheck is using /etc/pb/pb.yml (or pb.conf if older version) to &quo=

it&#39;s based on what is returned by a conf file such as /etc/redhat-relea=

You can mimic say what is provided by rocky linux e.g. and create your entr=

Indeed, another way is to hardcode stuff and force a centos type of distro.=

That&#39;s why it&#39;s great to have the sourse !!<br>
