[WBEL-users] md5sum source disk 1 wrong??

For all clarity, I've downloaded all 6 iso files using an ADSL connection.
All files were checked using md5sum and all except one check out. To be sure, I downloaded source disk 1 again (from an other source) and again got the same faulty value.

Some other one on the forum did the same, although he downloaded the source disk 1 from all downloadsites and also got the same faulty value.

This is in my opinion a clue that my hardware/connection isn't the problem. An other reason for me to believe this is because I also downloaded all iso files from Redhat9, Fedora Core 1, Gentoo 1.4 and Slackware 9.1 and all those files check out fine (no md5sum errors) ! ! ! ! ! 

Anyway, since I live in the Netherlands, I really doubt anyone local will have it. 

Thanks anyway ;-)
