My development platform is an Arista 7148S switch and compatible devices. The firmware version used is EOS 4.7 which based on Fedora Core 12 (with some small exceptions).

Unstructured notes
The flash disk is a FAT32 disk of 2GB and by default mounted on /mnt/flash
The /mnt/flash/persistent/ directory contains the system disk images.
The file /mnt/flash/rc.eos is executed at the end of the boot (switch reload) time. It has the file /etc/swi-version sourced, exposing the EOS version.
