Hi Martin, sorry for the mistake in the HandBook. Of course I should have written: wget https://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-15.0/iso/slint64-15.0-5.iso wget https://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-15.0/iso/slint64-15.0-5.iso.sha256 then: sha256sum -c slint64-15.0-5.iso.sha256 I will fix that and/or make a link like slint64-15.0-latest.iso Cheers, Didier Le 25/09/2023 à 14:55, Linux for blind general discussion a écrit : > I am not sure what is wrong but everything looks normal in the > image-getting phase.
