Check if a File you Downloaded has been Corrupted using the md5sum
If you download the Tiny Core iso, or another file, you can check if it has been corrupted by verifying the md5sum. If the md5sum is different, your download has been corrupted, and you'll need to download the file again.
To check the md5sum while running Linux, open the terminal and type:
cd path md5sum name
For example if you had tinycore_3.6.iso in /home/tc/dl, you would type:
cd /home/tc/dl md5sum tinycore_3.6.iso
Compare the md5sum generated, with the one on the site you downloaded Tiny Core from.
