And yes: Adding another Checksum wouldn't prevent an Attacker to recrete these files and replace them. But the chance isn't very high that an attackler could own 3 or 4 different Servers in different networks at the same time.

Wouldn't it be easier to just download the MD5-files from more than one mirror then and compare them? This, of course, requires than the master site isn't comprimised but othervise I think it's just as good as more checksums. -- Erik Wikstrvm
