Boot a Linode into rescue mode

post https://api.linode.com/{apiVersion}/linode/instances/{linodeId}/rescue

Rescue Mode is a safe environment for performing many system recovery and disk management tasks. Rescue Mode is based on the Finnix recovery distribution, a self-contained and bootable Linux distribution. You can also use Rescue Mode for tasks other than disaster recovery, such as formatting disks to use different filesystems, copying data between disks, and downloading files from a disk via SSH and SFTP.

Note that sdh is reserved and unavailable during rescue.
