I wasted my bandwidth by downloading it twice. Manolis Kiagias wrote: Richard wrote: Hi to all the members of the List. I am new to this list. But not new to FreeBSD. Twice I have tried to download 7.1 i386 dvd1 iso from 2 different ftp servers. But I am getting a totally different md5sum from the one listed in the website or ftp sites. Am I getting the right one?. The downloaded file for sure is not corrupt. Because I can unzip it,mount it and view the contents in it. Did anyone see the difference. The md5sum that I am getting is: 7d56d43359d7b7e05c0d450bafb4c8fa 7.1-RELEASE-i386-dvd1.iso.gz (md5sum) You've taken the md5 of the compressed gz file 64e8fe534e2e185d1f897bb742e06a1aae830f2978cb6b8c339977460fd6dfd6 7.1-RELEASE-i386-dvd1.iso.gz (sha256sum) The md5sum that is listed in the website is : MD5 (7.1-RELEASE-i386-dvd1.iso) = bbb47ab60bda55270ddd9ff4f73b9dc8 This refers to the md5 of the uncompressed file SHA256 (7.1-RELEASE-i386-dvd1.iso) = 303be4ce844f0cb18aa38a41988dc5fba960427dbc c69263410308176cb5875f Can anyone please confirm whether I am getting the right one. You are getting the right one, simply decompress before checking, i.e. gunzip 7.1-RELEASE-i386-dvd1.iso.gz md5 7.1-RELEASE-i386.dvd1.iso
