You can verify using the sha1 text file provided at the download site:
sha1sum file.iso | grep -f sha1.txt.
You should be able to see sha1sum signature after this operation. If a blank
line is retuned, means your download image is bad. The above operation takes
a long time depending on your system's speed.

I'm downloading the DVD iso images for fedora 9 everything 64-bit using
jigdo. This spin comes in 4 DVD's. I've finished downloading the first two
DVD iso images completely. I then tried to install fedora 9 and booted my
computer using the first DVD.
Before starting anakonda installer, I've the chance of verifying the
installation media. When I was prompted for verification, I chose to verify
the two DVD's I've till now. Actually, this was the sole purpose of running
the installation DVD, to verify the images I downloaded so far.
Everything went all right with DVD 1, however DVD 2 was reported to have
errors. I tried to verify DVD 2 using *jigdo-file* and the template file
for DVD 2, and *jigdo-file* reported that the image is good.
The problem can't even be with my DVD burner, because I haven't burned the
images yet. I used VMWare instead to boot a 64-bit virtual machine using the
iso files.
So now DVD 2 is reported to have errors by the verification step in the
installation process, while *jigdo-file* reports no errors about the
image.
Are all the installation media of the everything spin of fedora 9 64-bit
guaranteed to pass the verification process during installation or just the
first DVD(probably because it may match the official distribution fedora 9
64-bit DVD while the other DVD's aren't part of the official distribution)?
Is there a method to verify the image externally(with a third tool for
example) to settle if it's good or not?
Appreciating your help.
