Try again with the -b (binary) option to sha1sum and md5sum. On Window$, that
often matters.

Hi,

Thanks, but it doesn't seem to change :

$ sha1sum.exe -b -c SHA1SUM
sha1sum: the --binary and --text options are meaningless when veri
Try `sha1sum --help' for more information.

$ sha1sum.exe -b Fedora-9-x86_64-DVD.iso
62a608efe79fe50fa60ce8ea9e78f46ebbcec60c *Fedora-9-x86_64-DVD.iso

$ grep DVD SHA1SUM
f92576227484a4eeda0e86a497836c67c34d20ef Fedora-9-x86_64-DVD.iso

I should try to transfer the ISO to a linux host, to see if I have the same error...

Check the length of your downloaded ISO vs. what it _should_ be. Some
http downloads will screw up with a >2GB file...

Likewise with trying to save such big files on some file systems, such
as the *old* DOS/Windows one.

BitTorrent clients can handle files in excess of 2 GB. Best to save
to an NTFS formatted drive. If a torrent is too slow for you use
wget.exe (version 1.10.2 or greater) from the command line. Use it
with the -c option to ensure a complete download.

Fat32 drives have a file size limit of 4 GB.

1) The maximum file size for FAT32 is actually one byte less than 4
GB. A single layer DVD can store 4.7 GB.

2) I was addressing the limitation of the file downloading
application/plugin in older browsers and, for that matter, older
versions of wget.
