In the directory containing the .iso files and the MD5SUM* files, run: md5sum -c MD5SUM (or MD5SUMS, one is gpg signed, the other is not) It will take a few minutes to complete, and display a pass/fail message for each file. Like so: $ md5sum -c MD5SUM psyche-i386-disc1.iso: OK psyche-i386-disc2.iso: OK psyche-i386-disc3.iso: OK psyche-i386-disc4.iso: OK psyche-i386-disc5.iso: OK - -- - -Michael pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/gpgkey.txt Red Hat Linux 7.{2,3} in 8M of RAM: http://www.rule-project.org/ - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAj2aU2sACgkQn/07WoAb/St5oQCgh5G36wp5X0jqVZAxH3BswvBt c1kAn1MzttrqUOBpCDJDA0oSgFE2FzdD =b+pC -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
