How, then, can I be sure that Terry and I got the exact same *content* (forget timestamps) that Terry got?
I suppose you could mount the image and checksum the contents. That would probably involve one MD5 sum for each file in the image though. If you both redirect to a file you can diff them.
So how would I use the md5sum at a Konsole for this purpose? On Windows I can use > md5values.txt for this purpose. Will that work here? md5sum --help doesn't give any direct info on this. Can I use md5sum *.* or something like that? -- (o- Penguin #395953 lives at http://samvit.org //\ subsisting on ancient Indian wisdom ... V_/_ and modern computing efficiency! :)
