To determine if a SLES9 box has Open Enterprise Server (OES) installed, using the /etc/SUSE-release file is insufficient.
OES Linux boxes can be detected using the /etc/novell-release file, which doesn't exist on standard SLES9 boxes. The /etc/novell-release file contains version and architecture information for OES, as shown in Figure 1.
