Support Finnix
Finnix, the LiveCD for system administrators
Finnix is my personal project, but it does take resources to produce. If you would like to help the Finnix projects, there are a number of options available to you.
Contents |
Merchandise
Visit the merchandise section to purchase Finnix CDs, stickers, shirts, etc. CDs are mailed directly by me, while most other merchandise is available from CafePress.
Monetary donations
The best way to directly support Finnix is to send a cash donation. A donation of any amount is gladly appreciated.
Unfortunately, Finnix is not a registered non-profit organization, so donations are not tax deductable. However, if you are an attorney with non-profit experience and wish to donate time to Finnix to set up a non-profit organization, please email ryan@finnie.org.
Google ads
At the top-right corner of Finnix web pages, there is a Google ad block. If you see something that interests you, don't be afraid to click the ad. Every little bit helps.
Amazon purchases
At the bottom-left corner of Finnix web pages, there is a Amazon ad block. This block is similar to what Google provides; it displays products related to this site and your history with Amazon. When you purchase an item, a small portion of the purchase price helps Finnix.
Similarly, if you are ready to buy a specific item from Amazon, use the box to the right to first search for that item. Purchases made after searching via the box to the right will support Finnix.
If you just want to go to the Amazon home page, click here. Purchases made after clicking this link will support Finnix.
Hardware donations
I currently have enough x86 and G4 hardware at my disposal to develop/test Finnix, but at the moment, I do not have physical access to a G5. G5 testing comes from several remote testers, and is not comprehensive due to the remote nature. A donation of a G5 machine (iMac G5 or PowerMac G5) would be extremely supportive.
Alternatively, an Intel Mac Mini donation would be appreciated for testing/developing on an EFI-based system.
Please email ryan@finnie.org to make shipping arrangements.
Mirroring
New mirrors are always welcome, in order to distribute the download load. Please see the mirrors page for information about what it takes to become a mirror.
