Hello,

You can use, for GUI checksum verification, a simple script that checks the
md5 sums (or whatever type it is) and creates a simple popup with Zenity
staying whether it was succeeded or failed.

Put a README in your tar file (or however you distribute your images
without Debian) saying how to do all of this (double click the script and
copy the image somewhere), and, to me, that would be enough.

Sincerely,
kroq-gar78
