Those instructions are solely for the 10.04 disk, if you are using a different installation method then the check sum will be different.
If you pop over to the thread http://forum.phillw.net/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=94 that gives the 10.04 release, I would need to update it for the release levels for the alphas, or I could give you the instructions as to how to write them :p Possibly the md5 | cdrom command may be easier for people, as it only requires the md5 sum to check against.
