• SD card tagging:
  I have numbered all my SD cards for inventory management. I've inserted a tag in their directory structure to identify them. I've created a directory in their /root/home/pi folder, the title of which is eg. "This_is_SDxx"
  Inside that directory may be a filename NOOBSrev.txt that will contain the rev# of the NOOBS version loaded on the SD card.
To find NOOBS version:
• 1. If you have downloaded the zip file from a website, the NOOBS version is in the zip file name e.g. NOOBS_v1.3.11.zip
• 2. If you have an SD card with NOOBS already on it, then:
  a) insert it into your PC SD card reader and read the BUILD-DATA file
  b) Or: boot it on your rPi and hold the shift key down as it boots to enter the recovery program. The version is shown in the title of the main window.
  c) Or: If you are already booted into Raspbian, mount the /dev/mmcblk0p1 recovery partition and view the BUILD-DATA file there:
• $ sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt
• $ cat /mnt/BUILD-DATA
• $ sudo umount /mnt
• Find board info:
  $ cat /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/model
  prints out your actual board model
