Basil,

I stand to be corrected, but I seem to recall that the md5sum for an iso
is different to a burned CD.  From memory (and not complete at that) you
need to add options to indicate the sector size of the CD for it to
calculate it correctly.

So, check the download md5sum against the published result, but this
will not give the same result as a burned CD.
