How do I know if my Linux is 32 bit or 64 bit?

To find out if your Linux system is 32-bit or 64-bit, you can use the "uname" command with the "-m" option. "uname" is a command-line utility that allows you to display information about the system, and the "-m" option displays the machine hardware name.

To find out if your Linux system is 32-bit or 64-bit, follow these steps:

  1. Open a terminal and type the following command:
uname -m

  1. The output of the "uname" command is the machine hardware name of the system. If the output is "i686" or "i386", it means that the system is 32-bit. If the output is "x86_64", it means that the system is 64-bit.

With these steps, you should be able to find out if your Linux system is 32-bit or 64-bit using the "uname" command. Consult the documentation of "uname" for more information on how to use this utility.
