AVLinux sha256sum

[lilith]

Hi Glen,

I downloaded the 64bit ISO from here: http://download.linuxaudio.org/avlinux/AVL-MXE/64bit/

When I read out the sha256 sum I get 618778f9eec446f366a54f2af19283fd0fc67efb667cb42d48674ff2ac05109f AVL-MXE-2020.12.03-xfce4-amd64.iso

I repeated the download and get the same sum.

This seems to be different to your sum:

1450cc402571fd598f909ac55cd7957676bd31ae27f3beec3f16d16dbb838e1af951a8c206cee9deb94a0e9c7effee96cd04ed9b9469d26266fc1868fe988bae AVL-MXE-2020.12.03-xfce4-amd64.iso

Is there something wrong / confused?

What's the best when copying the image to a penstick? Should I use dd?

Another question: I'm used to (more or less ) optimize Debian distros. I guess as MXLinux is based on Debian the steps are basically the same, right?

Hi lilith,

There are only md5 and SHA512 sums in the download folder, are you running 'sha256sum' or 'sha512sum' to verify?

As far as copying to a USB key... what distro are you going to create it from? Unetbootin or DD should be fine..

No worries, I used to ship with SHA256 so it's not really an unreasonable mistake to make..
