And while I'm on the subject of files for download, why would someone
bother to note, in the README-BURNING-ISOS-en_US.txt file, that:
Choosing CD or DVD
Fedora Core is distributed on multiple CD-sized ISO image files, or a
single DVD-sized ISO image file. You can use the single DVD ISO file if
your computer meets the following requirements:
It has a DVD-writable or DVD-rewritable drive
It has a NTFS drive with sufficient space to hold the image file
Maybe it's me, but some of us...nay, a great many of us...have Linux
systems onto which we're downloading and planning to burn these DVD ISOs.
Since we're, most likely, running EXT2/EXT3n (or some other linux
compatible filesystems), and since NTFS isn't writable under linux, it
just seems to me that the text in that file is a little too narrow in its
scope.

I've downloaded the FC6 DVD ISO twice, now, and each time sha1sum comes back
with a different hash than what is listed in the SHA1SUM file:
From SHA1SUM:

What sha1sum shows me:
f70d4f694f7eb6f19d2cfdd3bcf927ee1f01c29e FC-6-i386-DVD.iso
I've had enough coasters burned because of bad checksums. Can anyone tell
me...do I have a bad download with my ISO, or is the checksum not correct
in the SHA1SUM file?
