Fedora 12 Checksum Miss

leave a comment »

Just in case I’ll need to re-install Fedora 12 in my laptop one day later, so I decide to collect the installer image. All this time I used InfoLinux’s DVD bonus when installing it. My first download has “wrong” checksum. I put the quote because actually it was right, I realize it after retry 2 times. All result were does not match with Checksum file.

it's 'wrong'

it's 'wrong'

Checksum list

Looking for information about it and get the fact that checksum actually should be checked using sha256, not sha1.

finally it's right

And, yeah I have spent bulk of my internet bandwidth to download 3 same files! LOL. Actually it was old issue.

Thanks for reading :D .
