Subject: setting motherboard serial number?
Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2011 17:46:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4ED117CD.6080808@mglug.de> (raw)

Hi list,

i have a little problem: a program of us is looking for the serial
number of the motherboard via

dmidecode -s baseboard-serial-number

which returns normally (i.e. Athlon Board) a 16-digits-number.

But doing this in a virtualized (i.e. Ubuntu-oneric-11.10) box, the
command returns the empty string.

Is there any possibility to set this number when defining the virtual
machine?

Tfh!

Regards,

Oliver
