I plan to load fedora my pc. I have already downloaded the four disc. The instructions state: After downloading the ISO images, check the MD5 checksums for the ISO images to ensure that your download was successful. Do this by running the md5sum program from a shell prompt against your ISO images and comparing the values returned against the ones published by Red Hat. The file from Red Hat containing the official md5sum values is called MD5SUM and is located in the same directory as the ISO images on the FTP site. My problem is that the instructions say to run the md5sum program from a shell prompt. First, the instructions don't tell me where to get the md5sum program - only how to get the file containing the md5sum values. Second, is a shell prompt the same as a command prompt in Windows? I am currently using Windows 2K. John Tinsley
