Make sure you download each MD5SUMS.TXT file for each CD.

Are you running Windows or Linux?

If you're in linux, go into the console and browse to the directory where your ISO's are located. Then type MD5SUMS <name of the ISO file>

If you're in windows, search for MD5 for windows in google, and you'll find one you can run on Windows. There, the command is MD5 <filename> I believe.

Compare what you get there to what's in the MD5SUMS.TXT file for each cd. If they match, you're golden!

Are you asking how to get the MD5sums, or what they are?

If you want to know what they are, here's what I have:

40c8812dce7b9f8fb0a3b364af62b974 MandrakeLinux-9.2-17-Download-1.i586.iso
e07fe7b1474eb3ba35cac3dfd479777e MandrakeLinux-9.2-18-Download-2.i586.iso
2b6ffc5957533c927f14197ec99a0372 MandrakeLinux-9.2-19-Download-3.i586.iso

If you want to know what they are, then download the iso to your machine and open a konsole window and type:

md5sum filename (assumes you are in the same directory)

It'll then tell you what your files are, then compare them against the sums I just gave you.
