Include a checksum (MD5, SHA1) when announcing your puplet Subject description: so we can check it downloaded OK
1st, many thanks to all you puplet creators.
To make sure we get your creation as intended, please don't forget to provide a checksum to verify it downloaded correctly.
The most common format is MD5, and can be created with one simple text command.
Code:
md5sum puppy-puplet.iso > puppy-puplet.iso.md5
To make it easy to spread your creation, try to host the MD5 file in the same directory as your puplet. Post a link to that directory so people can easily find both the puplet iso and its MD5.
See for more info.
