Warning !
This file is obsolete, please download the latest version.
As soon as your download is complete, you should check that the checksums match:
Checksums are available for download as files: Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso.md5 (md5 hash of the contents of the iso image), Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso.sha1 (sha1 512 bit hash) and Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso.sha512 (sha2 512 bit hash).$ # You need both iso and checksum file in the same folder $ md5sum -c Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso.md5 Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso: OK $ sha1sum -c Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso.sha1 Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso: OK $ sha512sum -c Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso.sha512 Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso: OK $ # You can also compare checksum directly from this web page without checksum file $ md5sum Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso 7c90caacad20df8d8146ad32d0903554 Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso $ sha1sum Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso df3254c07b54a031ed46a8fd61f8a796d71e9467 Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso $ sha512sum Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso d519376df14aab523f3a347ac0cf8875fadb5cdc8369bfc51d76d7e7083b7613ae52e90e36668c5ab4d82a6124c75d201eae98b24bf5417348f331c1d87d585b Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso
If checksums do not match, DO NOT use this ISO. Double-check and try to download again.
You can also verify the signature of an ISO. They are also available for download as files: Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso.md5.gpg, Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso.sha1.gpg and Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso.sha512.gpg. First you need to import the "Mageia Release" key from a PGP Public Key Server:
$ gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys EDCA7A90
In response there should be one of the following lines:
gpg: key EDCA7A90: public key "Mageia Release <release@mageia.org>" imported or if you already imported the key before: gpg: key EDCA7A90: "Mageia Release <release@mageia.org>" not changed
Then you need to verify the signature for the ISO.
$ gpg --verify Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso.sha512.gpg Mageia-6-i586-DVD.iso.sha512
In response there should be lines like:
gpg: Good signature from "Mageia Release <release@mageia.org>" gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature! gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner. Primary key fingerprint: B210 76A0 CBE4 D93D 66A9 D08D 835E 41F4 EDCA 7A90
The warning about uncertified signature is expected.
