finnix-hwsubmit
Finnix includes a utility called finnix-hwsubmit that lets you submit details about your hardware platform to me for consideration. Finnix-hwsubmit includes pieces of information (Finnix version, loaded modules, lspci output and dmesg), and lets you add details about your system, including any problems (undetected hardware, etc). Any information submitted is voluntary and optional, and may eventually be viewed by the public, so don't include any information you don't want the world to see. Please consider running finnix-hwsubmit, even if everything booted up fine, as it lets me see what kind of hardware Finnix has been run on.
