This did absolutely nothing. I moved the file to the desktop so I wouldn't
need to fiddle with having it find the CD drive.
I opened a program called Terminology and a terminal window opened.
I typed md5sum -/Desktop/trisquel_6.0_i686.iso and hit enter. The only thing
that happened was the next line said "Try `md5sum --help' for more
information." After that the name of the computer came up on the next line
with the cursor prompt blinking at the end of the line.
The trisquel_6.0_i686.iso file contains several things:
.disk
casper
isolinux
preseed
LEEME.TXT
md5sum.txt
README.TXT
Is anything missing?
If I put the cursor over the file on the desktop, a box opens with
information about the file. It says:
Mime-type:application/x-cd-image
Size:696.0 MiB
Owner:You
Permissions:Read-Write
Modified:Last week
Does this give any clues?
This is getting frustrating. A long time ago (2010) I put Ubuntu on a
computer. It took about a year for me to get enough answers to questions so
that it became useable. I just can't wait forever to get a new OS on my
machine. I want to start doing some work on it, not just play around with
GNU/Linux as a hobby.
