md5sum's can be checked on a burned cd. RedHat and Fedora allow you to
check the disk in the beginning of the installation, the check that it
is running is actually an md5sum on the cd itself.<br>

<p>If you download the ISO from a Linux box, simply open a terminal
and use<br>
the command<br>
<br>
#md5sum filename.iso<br>
<br>
it will return the same number as the posted md5sum if the file is ok.<br>
<br>
If you use a Windows box to download the file someone else can tell us<br>
both how it is done.<br>
<br>
Not sure if the md5sum can be checked after burning as the cd will not<br>
contain the ISO file, rather the contents of the ISO will be there<br>
separated into their proper directories. Some please correct me if I am<br>
mistaken.<br>

<p>Hi Ron</p>
<p>It was downloaded to a windows box, so it seems we both would
need a windows expert to tell how to make use of it in windows. Thanks
for you help anyways:)</p>
