Hi,
nope. - too hard - google is your friend.
md5sum whateverfile.iso
copy and paste the resultant md5sum into google and hit search.
if google finds the md5sum, it is a good iso.
So - google is your friend.
Derek.
There is also the possibility that somewhere along the path between
the original file and your computer an upload or download agent has
added some extra buffering bytes onto the end of the file. This is
more than possible if a writable CD has been used somewhere along the way.
cat the .iso file into the head utility with the argument being the
correct size of the file and then into the md5sum program.
You can obtain the file sizes from one of the mirror sites. For example:-
http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/xubuntu/12.04/release/
