Is the MD5sum correct as distributed? I just did a completely
successful download using BitTorrent, and it says that everything was
ok.
According to the MD5 file, for the 5 disks, I should therefore see:

2e925a39a949401abd57a26f0d09a672 FC3-test3-i386-disc2.iso

9ecbc904c654edec49666098082c3020 FC3-test3-i386-rescuecd.iso
But instead, I see:
! 4b1c867939bcc6bfde0c2396a276d3aa FC3-test3-i386-disc1.iso
2e925a39a949401abd57a26f0d09a672 FC3-test3-i386-disc2.iso
! ef112940cfbaa9f64da52ec6e06db8ac FC3-test3-i386-disc3.iso
ec5fbf3381cdf718c7f50362740ce784 FC3-test3-i386-disc4.iso
! c9e0f4dd7223b8819f1bc110b705d051 FC3-test3-i386-rescuecd.iso
which looks like bad disks 1, 3 and the rescue CD. I cross-checked the
MD5SUM file contents with 2 other mirror sites and the master site, and
they all agree. I just restarted my torrent, and it re-checked the
as-downloaded files and again found no fault.
RedHat has published bad MD5sums before, so that may be the real
problem. Before I go and start installing somebody's spiffy new cracked
version, which one is really correct -- the successful download, or the
RedHat calculation?
