Hi all I am having the following problem : I want to take a string from a user and generate an MD5 hash for it . The cmd line utility "md5sum" does it for files etc , but I got a hash by giving : $echo "string" | md5sum The problem is that this string does not generate the same hash as that generated by GRUB . Since anaconda prompts for the boot-loader password during installation , I tried to trace the module for generating the MD5 hash .But I am unable to find it . Could someone please throw some light on it ? Karan
