<h3>Checking the isos have the right MD5SUM</h3>
|
| 32 |
<p>After downloading the iso image, you can test if it was downloaded ok.
|
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
<p>If you have downloaded the <strong>i386 iso</strong> then, run: </p> <pre>md5sum debian-kde4beta4-live-cd-i386.iso</pre>
|
| 35 |
<p>And then check the numbers match with this: <pre>b435da69a050cfdda1785600503a20b6 </pre></p>
|
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
<p>If you have downloaded the <strong>amd64 iso</strong> then, run: </p><pre>md5sum debian-kde4beta4-live-cd-amd64.iso</pre>
|
| 38 |
<p>And then check the numbers match with this: <pre>8637dd633dff9861b67bd01475adecee </pre></p>

<h3>How to test the image with qemu</h3>

<p>You can test this live CD with qemu very easily, first install qemu.</p>
|

<p>Then run the cd with the following line:</p>
|
| 43 |
<pre>qemu -cdrom path/to/livecd.iso</pre>
|
