Bug Description
apt-get install lsb-release
Create /etc/lsb-release in finnix-release:
DISTRIB_ID=Finnix
DISTRIB_RELEASE=104
DISTRIB_
DISTRIB_
Replace all checks of /etc/finnix-version with checks of /etc/lsb-release, either $DISTRIB_RELEASE or $DISTRIB_
Remove /etc/finnix-version from finnix-release.
Modify stage2 to copy /etc/lsb-release to initrd and use as appopriate.
The 4 variables were copied from an Ubuntu install; are there any other standardized variables that could be useful?
See how much "Finnix" could be relplaced by $DISTRIB_ID for rebranding remasters.

/usr/bin/ lsb_release only seems concerned with ID, RELEASE, CODENAME and DESCRIPTION.
