Tiny thing, I'd use <emph> instead of <i> for this.   Also, it might be 
good to place this above the checksum links at least for those that just 
click the links immediately.

While we're making changes to this page, there's also the issue that 
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/readme-burning-isos/en_US/sn-validating-files.html 
is woefully out of date and still references SHA1 for those that click 
on the Windows user link :-(

Not what can really be done abou that last bit though.

Thanks,
Ricky
