Topic: bad download 5.6

[john Trombly]

I have tried 6 times to get a copy of 5.6 and each time I do not get a copy that checks out with the MD5 checksum. ( the ISO image)

6f9a006885572fb0c6a9d9137206038a is the checksum I get
fb2a795686e272eace3cd60875c9fa39 is what I am suppose to get

I originally ran the ISO file with out checking the MD5 checksum and it did not install. So I thought that I got a bad copy so I started checking the MD5 sum.

After installing it twice, I am determined not to burn another CD until the MD5 matches. Could it be that the MD5 checksum is incorrect?

I bet they are getting tired of me downloading this package......
Anyone have the same problem?
Anyone have any ideas?
Anyone have another way of getting this thing?

The checksum at ftp://ftp.e-smith.org/pub/e-smith/releases/5.6/iso/
is the correct one. I have checked a download that works OK which has this checksum.

AFAIK "md5sum" and "md5sum -b" give different results.  If you got the same checksum 3 times that would tend to indicate you're getting a good download.
