Help. I hve downloaded OOo and have a file

Make your life easy. The md5sum instructions on the website are
unnecessarily geeky. There are a number of good little free utilities
out there for computing these values.
My current recommendation is called Hashcalc. You can get it at
http://www.slavasoft.com/?source=HashCalc.exe
It's an honest to God Windows program, incredibly intuitive, and can
compute any of a dozen different hashes for you. All the md# variants,
all the SHA variants, and a few I had never heard of before.
Rod,
Can you help with this? What I mean is can attach a sample page to
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=37513 that provides
the instructions as you would like. Chances are that this will be a help
to those that maintain the page and to those users confused by the
current instructions. It will sure help with getting the 2.0 Setup
guide ready.
TIA
Hey Ger, is that the right issue? I suppose it would be useful to have
that info in the setup guide, but I would think the website would be
better. After all, the SG is part of the downloaded archive, and since
that's what the md5sum is checking in the first place...
Rod
