Note to users of MandrakeFreq:

The md5sum utility in LM 8.0 (in textutils 2.0-10mdk) produces an I/O
error when used on a CD-RW containing more than 640MB of information
(646.8MB is Ok, 647.0MB is not) .  It cannot be used therefore on the
new 80 minute / 700MB blanks when near-full.   

For example a MandrakeFreq-20010810-ext.i586.iso CD cannot be
fingerprinted with md5sum.

Cooker contains textutils 2.0-14mdk which exhibits the same problem.

md5sum will accept a file or a device as input.  It should be
extended to permit the calulation of md5sums recursively on folders
or directories.
