Shouldn't I get the same value each time? Am I misunderstanding the MD5 sums?
Your right, something is wrong.
===> More than you wanted to know below ;-)
One thing you might try is:
dd if=/dev/cdrom | md5sum

Thanks Greg, I did try your suggestion and it appears that my original CDs 3,4 and 5 have some problems. I at first thought I might be having drive problems but I have tried two different machines and 3 different rom drives with the same results. See below for sample md5 error output: dd if=/dev/cdrecorder | md5sum dd: reading `/dev/cdrecorder': Input/output error 1162800+0 records in 1162800+0 records out 0ed505701b0aa86ea208e0a8727e3591 - Therefore I am unsure if my .iso images are any good. I kept trying and eventually got what appear to be correct md5 checksums from the 9.1 Pro boxed media. I tried googling for the checksums, and I also searched the SuSE site, but came up empty. Can anyone verify these checksums for me? cd1 -- 017e6e625e1cecaf95c3c8ffc40fdf1c cd2 -- 91c5f44a6162bc5384b7f9968bd4fb4f cd3 -- 7db7efcf5986b88add217aefccc4daba cd4 -- 2bbb5a31596943ea174b58d8cd320ba7 cd5 -- 2e3af5434af4a63358ae1726e684359f DVD1a -- 6af511c68e068dad2478d66d7f098efb DVD1b-64 bit -- 30de4be400b099dd98c9e34281234ce1 DVD2a -- b1215d4ea2518149b34ce7ef3e22fb09 DVD2b-64 bit -- 86faa5a90d3b04fd0986652820136337 Thanks, Darrell Cormier
