Re: [Trisquel-users] Strange Checksum-Problem with Acer Aspire V3 772G

I'm not an expert in hashing functions, but it's my understanding that an md5  
function returning different values on the same data is just about always due  
to a hardware malfunction. Thus Magic Banana is insistent on doing the tests  
on your disk (and you were right to run a memory check).

Since it seems to work consistently in that other OS, one other thing to  
check is whether your laptop is running hotter while in Trisquel as opposed  
to the other OS...
