I noticed after burning the .iso images to disk and checking them with YaST that two of the disk images (#'3 and 4) had bad md5sums. I reburned one .iso and rechecked it and it still failed. I burned the fifth disk and it passed. I assume my two .iso files are faulty.
Can I replace the faulty .iso files in the directory that my bitttorrent client points to and have others get the correct .iso's or do I need to make a torrent?
are you sure the download is finished? I was thinking bittorrent did a md5sum before ending
Yes, it had finished two days ago and I was finally burning the individual disks to do an upgrade on a CD-Drive only system. I burn and then I check the md5sums.
Why not check the iso's against the SL-10.1/iso/MD5SUMS file *first*, to be sure you've got uncorrupted files? Of course you can check the md5sum from the burned iso too, after burning. But by /assuming/ you've got uncorrupted files (instead of verifying them) you can't be sure if the downloading went wrong or the burning went wrong. ;) Cheers, Leen
