On Fedora Core 2:

ls /etc/*release*
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 33 May 11 13:10 /etc/fedora-release
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  8 Mar  9  2004 /etc/krud-release
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 14 May 20 15:37 /etc/redhat-release -> fedora-release

krud-release is there because I used to use it to update Fedora.

cat /etc/fedora-release
Fedora Core release 2 (Tettnang)

cat /etc/krud-release
2004-03


There is no /etc/lsb-release
