How to make an md5sum for custom multidistro CD/DVD?
 
I'm steadily cranking out my own multidistro's, but want to know how to generate an md5sum when I create a CD from multiple distro's-anybody know?

just run md5sum on the file, no options or anything, and it'll spit it out after it's processed the file.

How do I do that?
And being that they are differing distro's mashed together, how will I know if the md5sum is correct?
Thanks!

did you try looking at the tiny man page? "md5sum my.iso"

what do you mean "correct"? you're the one generating it... :confused:

Awesome! Thanks alot.

Code:
root@bz-desktop:/home/bz/Desktop#
 md5sum /home/bz/Desktop/MultiDistro-Toolz-v4.20.iso
a7f261e3e9c70d39fc2c1f8107318684 
/home/bz/Desktop/MultiDistro-Toolz-v4.20.iso
So how do I make a md5sum.txt, just imitate others CD's and put my md5sum in the folder?
