classmethod detect(target: dissect.target.target.Target) → dissect.target.filesystem.Filesystem | None

Detect a Linux-like filesystem.

These days there is little difference in the filesystem format used by Unix and Linux. Both implementations use the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS). We can differentiate between Unix and Linux by checking for specific Linux kernel-only files not present on actual Unix filesystems (e.g. BSD, Solaris, IBM AIX and HP-UX).
