Sorry, kernel headers are not produced for Finnix, but a full kernel
source tree is available.  It's a little more work and takes more
space, but here's how you'd do it:

VER=`uname -r` # 2.6.24-2-x86-finnix in this case
apt-get update
apt-get install linux-source-$VER
cd /usr/src
tar jxf linux-source-$VER.tar.bz2
ln -s linux-source-$VER linux
cd linux
cp /boot/config-$VER .config
vi Makefile # edit line 4, EXTRAVERSION = -2-x86-finnix
make oldconfig
make modules_prepare

At this point, the tree should be ready to compile modules against.
