If you are talking about version 26 of the
*unofficial* LordSutch.com ISOLINUX test
image/mini-ISO for Debian 3.0, please carry on
reading.

You might want to cast your 1% doubt on error during
download. That's why jigdo is such a good idea. md5sum
your iso image to see if it match the published
md5sum.txt from the same place to obtain your raw/iso
file <http://www.phy.olemiss.edu/debian-cd/md5sum.txt>
which should read:

  1ebbcd163d092f458bc26cb9cfec241d 194543616
    woody-i386-1.raw

Alternatively, you may md5sum only that .deb package
in question. Mount your CD-R and cd to it's root. Do
this:

  md5sum ./pool/main/b/bash/bash_2.05a-11_i386.deb

If you don't get this:

  a6048e7a8a3901f2621106d540fce61f  
    ./pool/main/b/bash/bash_2.05a-11_i386.deb

you might want to forget about your 99% certainty and
investigate into this one in a hundred changes.

Cheers
