The virtualisation software that I use is Oracle's VM Virtualbox. I've dowloaded the .iso files (both the full installation, 3 DVDs, and the netinst versions)

Please copy and paste a terminal session showing the ISO file(s) and their SHA256 checksums. For example:

$ sha256sum debian-9.11.0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso
