Updated check-debian-cd
check-debian-cd is a shell script for quick checking of Debian CD images
after having burnt them, and for checking of Debian CD images after
having rsync'ed them. It is released under GNU GPL. Simple usage:
check-debian-cd
looks in /dev/cdrom and cheks the disc. Or:
check-debian-cd binary-i386-1_NONUS.iso
checks the image. You can give any number of images as arguments.
Checking is done using the md5sum program, and comparing the results
with an internal database of sums. The program automatically detects
the image, because the internal database contains signatures of the
Debian CDs. If the signature is not found in the internal database,
check-debian-cd looks in the current and parent directories for an
MD5SUMS file (or one can be provided with an option), and compares the
hash generated by md5sum with all those found in the MD5SUMS files.
Comments and bug reports welcome. The latest version is always
available at ftp://fly.cnuce.cnr.it/pub/software/unix/check-debian-cd.
Please note that I am not on debian-user.
