Re: [LINUX_Newbies] RE: Linux and MD5 checksums

 

Just a wild guess here, but years ago when I was using Windows to download Linux iso files, I made the mistake of renaming the file or something like that, which throws off the MD5 count.

I'm back on the road--I just tried to download
the .iso file for the 32bit Linux Mint (Mate) and
the MD5 code computed (using winmd5) from
my result and the number that is given on the
download page do not match (not even close).
This seems like a constant situation--after all
I did make three tries at this.

Does anyone have any idea what's wrong?
