[SOLVED] Can't perform checksum on Fedora 29 .iso file

zavmat · 01-26-2019, 10:57 PM

Here's where I'm at:

PHP Code:



[matt@localhost ~]$ sha256sum -c *Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-29-1.2.iso 
sha256sum: Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-29-1.2.iso: no properly formatted SHA256 checksum lines found

Close - you need to download the appropriate CHECKSUM file and run the check against that. Make sure the iso is in the same directory.

I don't have a download but I do have a web address

edit: Here is what I got when following the instructions from a different site:

I got rid of the -c and * and it yielded the sequence I was looking for, thanks syg00 for the help

From the Fedora download page there is a link to a verify page; it has instructions for importing and verifying the gpg keys. Also on that page is links to all the CHECKSUMS - just download the appropriate one and check it.
