I always wondered where K3B finds the checksum to check an ISO image against...
It doesn't get it from anywhere, it creates one from the iso file that -you- are supposed to check against the one supplied by the maker of the iso. I am not talking about downloading MD5SUMS to the same directory as the 5 iso's are. I am talking about the mediacheck that happens during the installation
I didn't say you did, I replied to Ulrich who asked the question about K3b and the checksum. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998
