 2.1.4.1 Verifying the MD5 Checksum
 ..................................
 
 After you have downloaded a MySQL package, you should make sure that
 its MD5 checksum matches the one provided on the MySQL download pages.
 Each package has an individual checksum that you can verify with the
 following command, where PACKAGE_NAME is the name of the package you
 downloaded:
 
      shell> md5sum PACKAGE_NAME
 
 Example:
 
      shell> md5sum mysql-standard-5.0.19-linux-i686.tar.gz
      aaab65abbec64d5e907dcd41b8699945  mysql-standard-5.0.19-linux-i686.tar.gz
 
 You should verify that the resulting checksum (the string of
 hexadecimal digits) matches the one displayed on the download page
 immediately below the respective package.
 
 * Make sure to verify the checksum of the _archive file_ (for
 example, the `.zip' or `.tar.gz' file) and not of the files that are
 contained inside of the archive.
 
 Note that not all operating systems support the `md5sum' command. On
 some, it is simply called `md5', and others do not ship it at all. On
 Linux, it is part of the *GNU Text Utilities* package, which is
 available for a wide range of platforms. You can download the source
 code from `http://www.gnu.org/software/textutils/' as well.  If you
 have OpenSSL installed, you can use the command `openssl md5
 PACKAGE_NAME' instead. A Windows implementation of the `md5' command
 line utility is available from `http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/'.
 `winMd5Sum' is a graphical MD5 checking tool that can be obtained from
 `http://www.nullriver.com/index/products/winmd5sum'.
