Yes, the relevant info is the latter half of section 9.6.6 now. Sorry for the misinformation! I did actually scan there before writing the above, but I was reading too quickly and carelessly and my eye didn't notice the latter half. By the way, that example reads the dvd twice: # dd if=/dev/cdrom bs=2048 count=23150592 conv=notrunc,noerror | md5sum # dd if=/dev/cdrom bs=2048 count=23150592 conv=notrunc,noerror > cd.iso whereas if you know that you do actually want the output file, it will be quicker to read it once and then checksum the file like this: # dd if=/dev/cdrom bs=2048 count=23150592 conv=notrunc,noerror > cd.iso # md5sum cd.iso -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
