Ryan Finnie has updated Finnix to version 87.0. I've updated all the hosts' Finnix Recovery Distributions to this latest version.

How to utilize Finnix in our environment

1) Create an empty Configuration Profile (Configurations sub-tab, click "Create a new Configuration Profile")
2) Select "Recovery - Finnix (kernel)" for the kernel
3) Select "Recovery - Finnix (iso)" for /dev/ubda
4) Select "Recovery - Finnix (initrd)" for the initrd (right below disk images)
5) Add your disk images that you need to repair/mount from inside Finnix to the remaining /dev/ubd slots.
6) Boot the new profile
7) Use the Lish Console to access your Finnix install

The Finnix LiveCD



Finnix ISOs for x86, and PPC are freely available for download for non-Linode use at:
