A few days ago, I copied the five FC6 installation CD images, the rescue = CD image, and the four source CD images to a directory and then put each = on a CD. =20 Yesterday, I booted up with the first installation CD. I decided to = test all the CD's, and got messages that two through five of the = installation CD's had errors, as well as the third and fourth source = CD's. I downloaded the second image again last night and tested it this = morning. I again got a failure message. I'd considered that my CD burner might be screwing up, since I got = errors from a GRML image I also downloaded and copied to a CD yesterday. = I dout that's the problem, though: last night, I accidentally copied = one of the good source images to another CD, and it passed the test. Is there anything else I should do to determine whether this is really a = problem with the iso images? =20 I note that I haven't yet figured out how to use the files on the site = to check the quality of my downloads. I'm using Lynx. When I press the = right arrow, it goes into the file; it doesn't bring me to where I can = download it, as it does with all the installation and source images. = >>From what I've read about MD5SUM, I think I'm supposed to have this file = (I think one of these is called SHA1SUM) on the hard drive, so that I = can use it to check the downloaded images. =20 I'll appreciate any info that will either help me if I'm missing = something here or warn me to wait for better images. Thanks! Al
