The message in German: sha256sum: WARNUNG: 14 Zeilen sind nicht korrekt formatiert Something wrong? It says WARNING: 14 lines are not formatted correctly. The only line you need to look at is the sha256 line.

I was pondering this last night, burning a disk at work as a high bandwidth sneaker-net. ... ... And there is a helpful link:

Might it be worth cribbing some of the info and creating an old fashioned readme to drop into the distribution mirrors alongside the iso & sha256 files? ...
Definitely a good idea. I suggest together with the command line(s) which provides the check and can simply be copied to a console. e.g.: sha256sum -c openSUSE-Leap-42.3-DVD-x86_64.iso.sha256 plus the estimated time for a DVD Check and the expected output. I don't know how long it takes checking a DVD but the Leap-ISO on my SSD needs 30 seconds for checking. cu Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
