    How to execute md5sum check?

    I got openSuSE saved in my FC10 desktop, waiting to burn.

    How do I do the checksum gig, before cookin' a disk (and not a coaster)?

    I tried a few commands, but the machine didn't like my syntax post 8, 9, 10 here:

    Thanks Ozar...

    This time, I got a value (unlike last night). I tried that last night, and it did not work.


    Looks like some variation in the numbers for comparison here: (twice)

    Code:
    [root@localhost chuckfc8]# cd /home/chuckfc8/Desktop
    [root@localhost Desktop]# md5sum openSUSE-11.1-GNOME-LiveCD-i686.iso
    28841811e2a4e37a64907e7b1a369cf0  openSUSE-11.1-GNOME-LiveCD-i686.iso
    
    [root@localhost Desktop]# sha1sum openSUSE-11.1-GNOME-LiveCD-i686.iso
    1755a0e0fa605a2aa0cfc2751d7731bb53617e29  openSUSE-11.1-GNOME-LiveCD-i686.iso
    
    [root@localhost Desktop]# md5sum openSUSE-11.1-GNOME-LiveCD-i686.iso
    28841811e2a4e37a64907e7b1a369cf0  openSUSE-11.1-GNOME-LiveCD-i686.iso
    
    [root@localhost Desktop]# sha1sum openSUSE-11.1-GNOME-LiveCD-i686.iso
    1755a0e0fa605a2aa0cfc2751d7731bb53617e29  openSUSE-11.1-GNOME-LiveCD-i686.iso
    [root@localhost Desktop]#
