Is there any way to check it from command line?
-
I just had to point out that there is some subtleties with this question. Does "installed" include filesystems that are supported by the kernel but you don't have any drives formatted with that; also how do you define "installed" when talking about FUSE. How about non-local "filesystems"? Also, do you consider devfs, debugfs, procfs, ramdisk as "filesystems"?– Lie RyanDec 24, 2011 at 5:01

@Lie Ryan I meant what filesystem the system partition is using– UAdapterDec 24, 2011 at 11:23

You can also check it by df -T
Sample output:
Filesystem Type 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdb1 ext3 19228276 14737848 3513680 81% /
tmpfs tmpfs 383960 4 383956 1% /dev/shm
You can also try df -hT
From man df:
-h, --human-readable
print sizes in human readable format (e.g., 1K 234M 2G)
-T, --print-type
print file system type

Just type mount, it will show all mounted devices and what fs type they are mounted as.
You could also do a sudo fdisk -l
nits@nits-excalibur:~$ sudo fdisk -l

Partition table entries are not in disk order
sudo blkid gives you information about the format of the partition along with its UUID and label if any.
nits@nits-excalibur:~$ sudo blkid

The two commands in conjunction with each other should be enough to get the information about partitions on your system.

This doesn't show what filesystems you have on the partitions. Not sure about windows* but in linux you could have any of these partitions formatted in any way. Dec 23, 2011 at 18:24

1@forcefsck: Thanks for pointing it out :) I have now added

1+1 Now it's more complete, since it shows info for all partitions and not only for the mounted ones. Dec 24, 2011 at 22:03
If you want to know what filesystem types are supported by your kernel,
cat /proc/filesystems

The OP clearly stated that he did not mean that in the comment section under the question. -1. Dec 27, 2011 at 18:29
