Hi all,
My friend is going to install scientific linux on his machine...he sent me this thing...
(ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/307/iso/x86_64).
File: SL.307.060906.x86_64.disc1.iso 636218 KB File: SL.307.060906.x86_64.disc2.iso 656198 KB File: SL.307.060906.x86_64.disc3.iso 655622 KB File: SL.307.060906.x86_64.disc4.iso 671748 KB File: SL.307.060906.x86_64.md5sum 1 KB
The question is what is the last "File: SL.307.060906.x86_64.md5sum". Sure he have to burn first 4 ones on the CD but what should be done with the last one? I doubt that it should be burned on the 5th disk.
That is a text-file that contains the md5sums of the iso-files. It is meant to check if you have downloaded the files correctly: md5sum your-iso-file.iso This will give you the md5sum of your-iso-file.iso. If everything is downloaded as it should, you will see the same value as is mentioned in the *.md5sum-file.
Sorry for little bit offtop and thanks in advance...
We all had to learn ;-)
Regards, Sergey
