SUSE uses tagmedia to check the media. I used the following command (and outcome) houghi@penne : tagmedia --md5 --pad 150 --check \ ~/iso/10.1_RC3/DVD_DIR/SUSE-10.1-0-DVD.iso md5sum=99b7d0c508d213aa0c9ab6edfad56ef1 pad=150 check=1
tagmedia shows you the tags stored in the iso.
However when I boot, YaST is looking for: 508ed5a962cc236da9e141df99c33386
yast & checkmedia show you the md5sum of the final iso, which, given the current state of cryptography and computing power can not be stored in the iso itself, so the md5sum tagmedia stores is _not_ identical to the md5sum of the iso. See docs in the checkmedia package.
What am I doing wrong?
The next thing is when I do a`checkmedia ~/iso/10.1_RC3/DVD_DIR/SUSE-10.1-0-DVD.iso` I get: not an iso
I'd say you don't have read permissions for that file. Steffen
