Ambiguous result from sha256sum checking of Xubuntu 16.04 LTS ISO file
Hello Techies,
I'm writing to You from a Live session of Xubuntu 14.04 LTS.
I'm trying and sha256sum checking the final release image of Xubuntu 16.04 LTS (32 bit)
I downloaded from the France mirror according to http://
The hash generated by sha256sum matches with the one given by the mirror.
More, I read the manual for sha256sum and tried to type to terminal:
sha256sum -c --strict xubuntu-
The result is as follows:
sha256sum: 101 restricted/
101 restricted/
sha256sum: 1605 restricted/
1605 restricted/
sha256sum: 3694 restricted/

sha256sum: 6931 main/binary-

sha256sum: 18161 main/binary-
18161 main/binary-
sha256sum: WARNING: 4504774 lines are improperly formatted
sha256sum: WARNING: 12 listed files could not be read
I'm worried about it and I wonder whether I made a mistake adding the options "-c" and "-strict" to the sha256sum command.
On the one hand the hashes match and on the other hand I read "FAILED", "No such file or directory", WARNING etc.
I followed the same procedure with the same ISO file from the German mirror and I got the same ambiguous result.
What do you think? Some suggestions?
Many thanks, Alberto
