Good to hear you got things figured out! I was doing many things
yesterday, and didn't notice your first e-mail, or I would have helped
out with md5sum (it took me a while to figure it out, too). Now that
you have it's basics, you can start using pipes and greps and such to
help automate the check proceedure... (When you do, you'll be ahead of
me, 'cause I still do it the hard way! :^)
