to verify the md5sum of an iso image file you can use the attached utility. you just need to put all the iso files in the same directory as of the utility. take care that you do not put anything else in that directory (coz this utility calculates the checksum for every file in that directory). now you can run this command from the dos shell. you'll have to be patient after hitting the return key, coz it takes arround five minutes time to calculate the checksum. after that it'll display the checksums of all the files... I had the same problem with 1st Shrike CD. It had the wrong checksum, I had to download fresh iso to get through it...

I dont understand the way of checking md5sum would you mind telling me the "step by step guide"....I feel stupid to ask for this but according to guide on REDhat website i should run md5sum from command line ...if I do this in windows it doesnt do anything. Now you are telling me that it should run under linux or cqwin utility? what I did initially was I went to directory with al my iso files and through win cmd line I typed md5sum (and the file namme of the image) ....but this doesnt do anything thanx for any replies ivan ----- Original Message ----- From: John Haxby <jch samsungcontact com> To: <shrike-list redhat com> Sent: Monday, June 30, 2003 2:36 PM Subject: Re: shrike-i386-disc 2 problem > It's going to be much easier to check the ISO image first: > > md5sum shrike-i386-disc2.iso > > (or whatever it's called).
