Description of problem: I tried the instructions for verifying checksums on Windows (section 3.3.1) but ran into a problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 23 iso download, Windows 10 computer How reproducible: Follow the instructions detailed in section 3.3.1 of the install-guide on a Windows 10 computer. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download the Fedora checksum file 2. Open a powershell session 3. Change to the directory containing the checksum file 4. Run the following commands: > $image = "Fedora-Server-DVD-x86_64-21.iso" > $checksum_file = "Fedora-Server-21-x86_64-CHECKSUM" > $sha256 = New-Object -TypeName System.Security.Cryptography.sha256CryptoServiceProvider > $expected_checksum = ((Get-Content $checksum_file | Select-String -Pattern $image) -split " ")[0].ToLower() > echo "Expected Checksum: $expected_checksum" Actual results: "sha256sum" Expected results: "a91eca2492ac84909953ef27040f9b61d8525f7ec5e89f6430319f49f9f823fe" Additional info: The correct checksum is actually in the fourth and final position of the string after being split. I recommend replacing the [0] in the instructions with a [-1], assuming that you are able to recreate this problem. If not, let me know and I'll try to provide a more detailed report.
