Hi Alex,

I haven't finished jigdo-building and checksumming *all* of these
images, but I'm seeing no issues from the first 6 of the amd64 DVDs so
far. So, questions:

 1) do you get a consistent set of failures each time you run the
    md5sum command?
 2) what mirror are you using, and where are you getting the jigdo
    files from?
