Hello,

http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.3/iso/openSUSE-11.3-DVD-i586.iso.md5

says that the md5sum of the opensuse-11.3 dvd should be

1a1da28c84e3cdad750d5cfa21c4fd17 openSUSE-11.3-DVD-i586.iso

but the file I downloaded today from http://software.opensuse.org/113/de
gives:

jw@kiste> md5sum /var/tmp/images/openSUSE-11.3-DVD-i586.iso
d66ce5f7061b586cdd5406f9dbe7cfa1
/var/tmp/images/openSUSE-11.3-DVD-i586.iso

What would be the correct md5sum?


Why not run the DVD and select the option to test the DVD for errors?
This will 'tell' you if the DVD is broken.

but why waste the time burning a disk with a known wrong md5sum?

i'm pretty sure the answer to his problems is to fetch a full and
correct image...

I've seen such responses before - and they puzzle me.

Since the 1980s we have had download protocols which use CRC to ensure
that the file being transmitted is received correctly. So what has
happened to this feature?

I've had numerous bad dl's using a web browser as well as using wget,
that checksum would be nice to have, if it could identify the bad chunk
and request it be sent again.
