Is there a way within SMS 2003 to detect Linux machines?
I don't need to manage them, just to identify dual boot machines with Linux on them.

Have tried the hardware tables but got very inconsistent results.

Any help much appreociated.

is it possible to look for HDDs with unreadable partitions? Usually Windows will ask if you want to format them if viewed in disk management. I'd imagine SMS would pick up on them the same way.

Unless, of course, you have a lot of HDDs with un-formatted partitions...
