You can get all kinds of information about your hardware with the lshw command.

I'd probably use the output of `lspci` and compare the PCI devices with the features of those two boards, assumign there is some obvious difference, like different northbridge chips or whatever (i'm not very familiar with the EPIA stuff)
lshal may or may not tell you what brand and model board it is.
EPIA is the name for the family of motherboards VIA makes in the Mini-ITX & smaller form factors. The series includes about 4-5 different processor families ranging from the old C3 's up to the Nano processor.
The only way I know of to figure out which which mainboard you have is to cross reference the outputs of "cat /proc/cpuinfo" and "lspci -v " against VIA's own specs lists. You may even have to go so far as to open the unit's case to find the silk screened model number.
