Boots fine but.
Can I get someone who has successfully downloaded puppy-215CE-Final.iso to execute the md5sum command on the mounted cd. Md5sum output on the individual files might be a good thing to make available on the download servers, possibly as a text file on the iso, so a user can verify puppy cd/dvd boot media for errors. IE.. verify reader is reading correctly, cd/dvd not scratched etc.

puppy-215CE-Final.iso strangeness
i have suggested putting an md5sum file in the iso, more than once
then you could easily check if each file in the iso or on the cd/dvd is a perfect copy or not
this does not check the entire disc, but it does check 99% of the disc, and it does verify all the files on the disk ... and the md5sum file is not very large
and it can help to check whether a cd/dvd disc burned correctly or not

There is a difference on my machine for zdrv_215.sfs (april 06 17:58 )
What is the date/hour of yours?

Thanks for the replies!!
Must have gotten corrupted during the burning process or it is not reading correctly because the md5 checksum was correct for the iso. I should have kept the iso but I stored and burned it from RAM. Since puppy only has a handful of files, it could have a copy of the md5 checksum (maybe several copies for redundancy) included in the iso. IE... another plus for using puppy over most other distros.
Again
Thanks Very Much for the information!!!

PS -- maybe the scripts run during the startup process could check the md5 checksums on the core files, then warn the user. Wish I could download just the corrupted file, approx 1/10 the size of the ISO file, then I could fix my problem.

According to WhoDo, at
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=108734
zdrv_215.sfs is just zdrv_214.sfs, renamed.
zdrv_214.sfs is available at
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... uppylinux/
However, its md5sum is
51d463b8507a7d0391225d00f64c3135
which is different. Anyone know why?

Run md5sum AFTER renaming and it should match. I think the checksum includes the file name.Sit Heel Speak wrote:However, its md5sum is

Good point. Though I burn wherever possible (and always with ISOs) in K3b in SuSE and I check the verify box before hitting the final (top right) burn button. If it believes the burn is a correct replication of the original ISO then one receives a message at the end of the verification that it believes it is "binary equal".GuestToo wrote:i have suggested putting an md5sum file in the iso, more than once

and it can help to check whether a cd/dvd disc burned correctly or not
Having already compared the checksum it reads on loading the .iso file prior to burning, with the published md5, I figure this also gives a 99% probability of a good burn.
