I have a network appliance whose OS and shell is based on FreeBSD. I am unable to determine which version of FreeBSD it is. The uname -a command only returns the name and version of the appliance. The FreeBSD copyright strings I have found do not indicate the version. I do not have the source code for the appliance.
Is there a way to discover the major/minor release of FreeBSD by looking at the file system? Unique changes in the size and presence of files and directory structure as FreeBSD has evolved should give definite clues to the identity of each release. Has anyone compiled this type of information?
