No, you cannot check a suspect OS with a suspect OS. Have a friend check the hash or signature with their own OS that is different from your OS, or use different OS at library, store, school or work to check it. > It's been almost half an hour and sha256 on /dev/sdX still ain't done yet :( > Something's wrong here probably. No there's no "locks" unless your OS is lame. Change your blocksize... dd if=/dev/foo bs=2k | sha256 If your OS chokes on the native 2k like it does 512, use 8k or 1m and see if it streams better. -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
