I have just dowloaded Fedora-9-i386-DVD.iso, which seems to be a

The md5sum of the downloaded file is 72601f685ea8c808c303353d8bf4d307
while the downloaded file SHA1SUM contains

The md5sum in not the same as the sha1sum. They are generated by different programs. If you want to check the sha1sum, try the sha1sum command instead of the md5sum command.

sha1sum -c SHA1SUM

Because of the way bittorrent works, it is unusual to get a bad image if the torrent completes. It does much more error checking then a normal download.
