Slint MD5 information of ISO


I download Slint ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/slin...l.iso/download ).
I don't found the MD5 checksum info/file on website. Where is the MD5 info/file of ISO file ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/slin...l.iso/download ) ?

Thanks.

As stated in http://sourceforge.net/projects/slint/files/14.1/:
Quote:
To check the integrity of each file, just click on the letter i in a black circle on its right. This displays its sha1 and md5sum checksums.
That's the usual way to get the checksums for files hosted @ sourceforge.net.

However, this is not practical or even usable for some users, e.g. blind users. For that reason I also indicated these md5 and sha1 in http://slint.fr/docs/README_BRLTTY.

Maybe in addition I should just upload files with the checksums alongside the ISOs. Oh, well...

PS I won't copy the checksums here, as they change at each update of the ISOs.

PPS I just updated the information here to state that the checksums are also available in README_BRLTTY.

Sorry the link was wrong (but fixed 13 minutes before you wrote the post I am quoting).

Oh and as already requested please wrap [QUOTE] tags around the text you quote. There are several ways to do that. If you want to quote a complete post just click the QUOTE button in back of it.
