Welcome to the forums!

It's probably some customized version of Linux, but you can take a look around in the /etc folder to see if there any clues there. You could also try running the following commands from the command line to see if anything is revealed:

In the interim, maybe someone that has this netbook and has already researched this will reveal the Linux distribution used.

So I was looking at the Ubisurfer manual. It has a some gems.

It also says it uses Firefox, but shows a picture of Iceweasel.


From what I can find its got an ARM processor. That and the iceweasel thing suggest to me that it's likely based on Debian, but I can't find any concrete info.
