md5sum "How-To" for Debian iso download
Hi Members,
Been at this for quite some time. I'm new to the application called
"md5sum.exe" thus please be patient. I researched the "how-to" and
attempted to verify the debian netinst file called,
"debian-6.0.5-i386-inetinst.iso" that I downloaded yesterday.
I'm using windows 2000 and windows 7 to learn the process of verifying
that the file I downloaded is in fact "error free". I went into the
command prompt (cmd) in windows and attempted to execute the
md5sum.exe file to check the iso file I downloaded.
I downloaded the debian iso file to my desktop and installed the
md5Sum.exe as per recommended (in system32) folder. I'm not sure I'm
typing the correct path.
I utilized the following tutorials but they did not work for me. I
believe the error is in my coding inside the command prompt.

Can anyone please point to a tutorial to accomplish this procedure?
Thank you very much
