My test:
SimplyMEPIS-3.3.1-1.iso
checksum: 41a19060d3bb37bd596708ba77964491
i got: 41a19060d3bb37bd596708ba77964491
Do people normally provide md5 checksum in a hexadecimal string?
Besides that, is the script reliable?

How do you calculate the md5 checksum of a file?
so far i got this,
import md5
obj = md5.new()
file = open( 'filename', 'rb')
data = "">obj.update(data)
checksum = md5.digest()
Is this correct? Is there anything else i should do before comparing the
checksum with the one provided for the file?

the script has some obvious bugs, but nothing you won't discover simply
