Among the following are some better, yet easy enough to remember and type, examples: # egrep -i 'deb11|deb 11|seye|bull|debian11|debian 11' *L*txt | grep ├─ | wc -l 26 # egrep -i 'deb11|deb 11|seye|bull|debian11|debian 11' *L*txt | grep ├─ a-865L10.txt:├─sda28 ext4 SS25deb11 cb7dac29-… ab250L26.txt:├─nvme0n1p14 ext4 pt3p14deb11 889fea98-… ab560L10.txt:├─nvme0n1p14 ext4 tm8p14deb11 78980253-… ab85mL14.txt:├─sda17 ext4 tg1p17deb11 53725495-… asa88L08.txt:├─sda14 ext4 tvgp14deb11 2c533ad4-… big31L52.txt:├─sda28 ext4 p61bullseye 8718ac45-… big41L51.txt:├─sda25 ext4 i256bullseye 274996ea-… fi965L26.txt:├─sda17 ext4 w71bullseye c3b75320-… g5easL34.txt:├─sda11 ext4 m25p11deb11 8cb07113-… ga88xL01.txt:├─sda14 ext4 tvgp14deb11 2c533ad4-… gb970L12.txt:├─sda24 ext4 gs5p24deb11 f890a134-… gx270L14.txt:├─sda31 ext4 debian11 7b4a7828-… gx27bL23.txt:├─sda33 ext4 33deb11 d25ab64a-… gx27cL20.txt:├─sda32 ext3 deb11p32 307f2bcb-… gx280L27.txt:├─sda21 ext4 21deb11 908f51ef-… gx28bL21.txt:├─sda24 ext3 s16d-deb11 8711d07c-… gx320L15.txt:├─sda34 ext4 sbyd-deb11 bfc2b8a0-… gx62bL32.txt:├─sda35 ext4 t87p35deb11 7b6de942-… gx780L30.txt:├─sda25 ext4 25deb11 79dcb3f6-… gx78bL12.txt:├─sda16 ext4 p256p16deb11 6c2f8ee8-… hp750L05.txt:├─sda14 ext4 st20deb11 32f05d14-… hp945L15.txt:├─sda15 ext4 h8sbullseye 2f1ef2a2-… m7ncdL29.txt:├─sda44 ext3 H16Adeb11 7c5fd253-… mcp61L19.txt:├─sdb21 ext4 debian11 367e0348-… msi85L11.txt:├─sda10 ext4 sp25p10deb11 d8be9f22-… # The *L*txt files are automatically generated partitioner[1] logs with both both parted -l and lsblk -f output appended, which I use for keeping track of what's installed where here.
