What terminal command shall I use to find out what OS (32-bit or 64-bit) is mounted?
Is the command the same for debian-5.0.3, openSUSE-11.2 or ubuntu-8.0.4?...

There are two commands you may be interested in. The first will give you the kernel and CPU architecture, the second will list the distribution and its respective details.
Code:uname -mr cat /etc/*release

On second thought, uname -a gives it ALL.
