Use md5sum to Check if a File has been Corrupted

If you download the Tinycore iso, or another file, you can check if it has been corrupted by verifying the md5sum.

To check the md5sum while running Tinycore or another Linux distribution, 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 Tinycore from.

If the md5sum is different, the file has been corrupted, and it needs to be download again.
