Notes

  • Finnix is available for multiple platforms, please make sure the ISO you download is for your intended architecture. Most users will want "x86".
  • Download links automatically redirect you to a random mirror. When posting Finnix ISO URLs on other sites, please use these round-robin URLs (they begin with http://www.finnix.org/releases/). For a list of all mirrors, see Mirrors.
  • MD5 checksums, GPG signatures and package lists are available in the release notes for each download.
  • "Code names" in Finnix refer to the development cycle leading up to the release, and not the release itself. Releases are signified by version number.
  • Versions with two package counts in the table above represent x86 and PowerPC package counts, respectively.
