Displaying Instructions for Verifying Installation Media



I do not think the web site or installation guide do a good job steering users toward verifying downloaded installation media. Many people do know where the information is: You just remove the filename from any download URL and it brings you to the appropriate page with the appropriate checksum files and a link to the verification guide. However, less experienced or less sophisticated users don’t fully realized the importance of verifying the installation media.

 

I think that suggesting and linking to verification instructions would further the interests of Internet users.
