Yup. That's it. It's just a text file. In Mozilla, you can just right-click and say "Save link target as" and save the file, or just copy+paste the contents into vi. No prob.Ah yes, some man files are so helpful, some are just horrible.
Oh, good. I was hoping it wasn't just me!
I am assuming you have downloaded something like Mandrake ISOs. What you need to do is put the files you downloaded and the md5sums file in the same directory. Then type:
md5sum --check md5sums
(or whatever then name of the file is with the md5sum numbers)
Can I simply take the checksum number and create whatever old file-- vi
a new file-- with the value, and point the command line to that file?
Or does there have to be some special structure to the file? In my case, I downloaded the RH9 isos from Red Hat directly. Their MD5s are just posted on the site next to the file download link. Many thanks--
