Jim, Good luck. Hope your hardware upgrades do the trick.
I d/l'd the latest FC4_X86_64 recently from two mirror sites and got the same "incorrect" md5 sum from both: The md5 sum from what I d/l'd from 2 mirror sites: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Documents/Fediora_Core_4> ls -al total 5733822 drwxr-xr-x 2 rodney users 160 2005-06-16 08:16 . drwxr-xr-x 3 rodney users 112 2005-06-16 01:01 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 rodney users 2932850688 2005-06-16 03:09 FC4-x86_64-DVD_badMD5.iso -rw-r--r-- 1 rodney users 2932850688 2005-06-16 08:16 FC4-x86_64-DVD.iso -rw-r--r-- 1 rodney users 954 2005-06-16 06:24 SHA1SUM [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Documents/Fediora_Core_4> md5sum *.iso 901ef29f7231e260d3318f85dbfe40ae FC4-x86_64-DVD_badMD5.iso 901ef29f7231e260d3318f85dbfe40ae FC4-x86_64-DVD.iso The expected md5sum -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 2f166c7cff4e7334744d48e642b3287693d982ed FC4-x86_64-DVD.iso I think Mr. O mentioned that he had a similar problem. Has anyone d/l'd an FC4 dvd image and gotten the "correct" md5sum? I recall a few months ago, I d/l'd an FC3_x86_64_dvd.iso and got the correct md5sum.
