Bash Help

All,

Have this script to pull version from the system:

Code:for line in $lines; do
if [[ "$line" =~ "VERSION_ID=" ]]; then
ver=${line:11:5}
echo "$ver"
fi
done < cat "/etc/os-release"But it produces this error string:
Quote:

syntax error near unexpected token `"/etc/os-release"' done < cat "/etc/os-release"'

By all the HOWTOs this is suppose to work, but since it says "syntax" gotta be something simple, right?

if it is obvious to you, please help!

Cheers!
