public string inspect_get_format (string root) throws Error
Warning: inspect_get_format is deprecated.
get format of inspected operating system
There is no documented replacement
Before libguestfs 1.38, there was some unreliable support for detecting installer CDs. This API would return:
installed This is an installed operating system.
installer The disk image being inspected is not an installed operating system, but a *bootable* install disk, live CD, or
similar.
unknown The format of this disk image is not known.
In libguestfs ≥ 1.38, this only returns installed. Use libosinfo directly to detect installer CDs.
Please read "INSPECTION" in guestfs(3) for more details.
