I have downloaded 2 of the 3 RH9 CDrom images.
        shrike-i386-disc1.iso
        shrike-i386-disc2.iso
By the time you read this I will be downloading the third. I am doing
his over a dialup line so it takes about 35 hours to download 1 image.

Disc2 gives the correct md5sum. But Disc1 does not. However it is not so
badly corrupted that I can not load it. I think that there are only 3
files damaged none of which are important. But I need to check this.

If I could have a check sum of all the files in the image of disc1 which
checksums correctly, I could compare them with the checksums on my
damaged image and confirm this. Please could someone run the following
script over the the 1st and 3rd images/CDs for me and email the output
to: pnews@lomarline.freeserve.co.uk

#!/bin/sh
md5sum $1
mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 $1 /mnt/cdrom
find /mnt/cdrom -type f -print0 | xargs -0 md5sum
umount /mnt/cdrom

If I have this info, I can download just the files in the images which
are damaged saving me a day or more of dedicated downloading, hence
speeding up my 10 year old daughters playing of neo-pets!

Thanking you in anticipation pbs.
