The other solutions in this thread required either new tools (gpio) or you have to map the cpu revision code to a look-up table (and maintain it). that's the only command which tells you exactly the name i.e. `Machine model: Raspberry Pi 2 Model B Rev 1.1` - without root too.

Apr 13, 2017 at 12:22	comment	added	goldilocks♦		@Milliways The reason it doesn't do this for me is the system has been up too long. That's from boot, and `dmesg` is a circular buffer. Hence, this is a flawed methodology.
