The date is correct, going from memory it sounds about right. and a quick check of the master ftp shows the same. lftp ftp.sunet.se:/pub/unix/Linux/distributions/mandrake7.0/iso> ls -l total 1311184 drwxrwxr-x 2 johanftpadm96 Feb 18 10:49 . drwxrwxr-x 6 johanftpadm 8192 Mar 5 13:10 .. -rw-rw-r-- 1 johanftpadm 1398 Jun 30 1999 README -rw-rw-r-- 1 johanftpadm 671809536 Feb 1 07:29 mandrake70-2.iso -rw-r--r-- 1 johanftpadm51 Feb 1 10:05 md5sum lftp ftp.sunet.se:/pub/unix/Linux/distributions/mandrake7.0/iso> > On Tue, 07 Mar 2000, John Aldrich wrote: > > On Tue, 07 Mar 2000, you wrote: > > > Johnthere have been two Air iso's, 7.0 on January 14th and > > > 7.0-2 on Febuary 4th. > > > > > Hmm.

Re: [expert] md5sum mandrake70-2.iso
PhilI'm not fron MandrakeSoft, but since I wrote the message that placed the dates in question on the two iso's I'll attempt a response. I believe that I should have said in my original message that MandrakeSoft ANNOUNCED the two different Air iso's on January 14th and February 4th respectively. I would certainly trust the VERSION file in the iso to indicate which release it is.

Johnthere have been two Air iso's, 7.0 on January 14th and 7.0-2 on Febuary 4th.

They changed the iso image on February 5, and did not change the md5sum file. Using an image with the message digest of 6f01a2df94f8f39d6c73245e9bc87ada, I installed Mandrake, and have been actively using the CD for a week or two with no sign of trouble.

When you download to correct your previous image, use rsync (eg to rpmfind.net). Best to set it up as a script. rsync will use a special algorithm to compare the two images at the bit level and only download the differences. It's VERY quick. -- Regards, Ron. [AU] - sent by Linux.

However, I just ran the md5sum generator against the ISO image on my machine and it APPEARS to be the one you list as the "proper" ISO checksum. Ok. I just checked the checksum *I* generated with the one that I downloaded from Mandrake. They match. Sorry, cannot verify. You must have a bad ISO image. My *guess* is that you have some errors being generated during download. I'd run some ping tests between you and your dial-up server there at UTEXAS.EDU as well as ping/traceroute (suggest you get and install MTR for this purpose) to att.net, which is your immediate upstream provider for the University of Texas.

[expert] md5sum mandrake70-2.iso
Can someone confirm that the md5sum file for mandrake70-2.iso on the ftp sites is wrong? It reports that the checksum for this file should be "3c753fa01628fd8deeccbbdf1e4524e8", but I've downloaded it from different servers to different linux machines using both ftp and http, and I always get the same md5sum value: "6f01a2df94f8f39d6c73245e9bc87ada". - rick -- Richard Kilgore | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Software Developer | http://lore.ece.utexas.edu/~rkilgore/ Graduate Student in Computer Engineering
