 Hello John,
 
       My official copy from one of the dutch ftp servers has the correct md5 sum
 
       -bash-2.05b$ md5 6.2-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso
       MD5 (6.2-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso) = 3d27214700687c0b5390e8b6dd3706e3
 
       The sizes are the same as on the official server, I am downloading that
       one now to see any potential changes.
