sha1sum on Mac OS X
I had downloaded Fedora Core 8 to install on one of our work servers, and I noted that only sha1sum’s are provided to verify the downloaded iso now. In the past I had used md5sums and had installed md5sum on my Mac to achieve this. Anyway, it turns out there is a simple solution to verify the file anyway.
openssl dgst -sha1 Fedora-8-i386-DVD.iso
