Показать описание
Before installing the Linux Mint operating system on your computer, it is a good practice to verify the downloaded ISO file for integrity and authenticity.

The verification process is quite simple, but it might seem a bit confusing for new users as it requires some actions to be completed via a Command Prompt and by utilizing other software.

In this video, I will demonstrate how to perform the verification process of the Linux Mint ISO file step-by-step. You can also use this guide to verify the integrity of other ISO images using the SHA256 checksum.

0:00 Intro
0:37 Download Linux Mint ISO
2:16 Is Verification Needed?
4:36 Download Reference Files
5:20 Integrity Check
10:21 Authenticity Check

Hope you find this guide helpful!

Great quality content PulsarTECH! another thing to add (for peace of mind) most (if not all) modern DNS have DNSSEC on by default... I checked a few of the download pages & it's on by default on there end as well.... just another layer of authenticity...

So if you've seen the movie Pure Luck, that's me. If something is broken or fake, my choices will choose it. My first hash did not match, so I ended up having my husband choose a mirror site instead, and his was authentic and signed. Thank you!

Respectfully, Linux needs to dummy proof the checksum verification. A simple Yes or No would be invaluable. 🙃
