- To check the files, download the program
<application>HashTab</application> available from <ulink
url="http://beeblebrox.org/"></ulink>.
- </para>
- <para>
- Drag each Fedora image file that you want to validate, and drop it onto
<application>HashTab</application>. Take note of the SHA256 value that
<application>HashTab</application> displays.
- </para>
- <para>
- Open the file <filename>CHECKSUM</filename> with a text editor, such as
<application>TextEdit</application>, to display its contents. Make sure the
hash displayed by <application>HashTab</application> for <emphasis
role="strong">each</emphasis> of the downloaded ISO files <emphasis
role="strong">exactly</emphasis> matches the corresponding hash in the
<filename>CHECKSUM</filename> file.
- </para>

To validate the files from the command line, use the
<command>shasum</command> command. In order to correctly validate the files,
the 256-bit algorithm must be specified. Change into the directory that holds the ISO
image files, then run <command>shasum</command>. For example:
</para>
- <screen>
-<command>cd Desktop</command>
-<command>shasum -a 256 Fedora-&PRODVER;-i386-DVD.iso</command>
- </screen>

file from <ulink
url="https://fedoraproject.org/verify " />

<para>
If all of the hashes match, you can burn the ISO file to disc. If a file does not
match, download it again.
