Description

Hi,

The current Finnex used in rescue mode has non-password root ssh access disabled, so either the guide should note that or the Finnix image used should have these settings enabled again.

(the url to the guide: https://linode.com/docs/platform/disk-images/copying-a-disk-image-over-ssh/)

Also of note is that ssh may complain about changes in host identification:

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@    WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!     @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

and a hint how to remove the old host key ie. ssh-keygen -R hostname
