[Server-devel] Possible problem with school server image

[John Watlington]

Carol,
   Yes, I think the MD5 sum either got dropped in December when I moved
to late F7 build tools, or was never there.   Thanks for filing the

I'm moving to F8 for other reasons, and I believe the md5 checksum is
back in place.  More soon!
