Lee:
The md5 summs for modules.gz and modules64.gz don't seem to match?


--- Code: ---tc@apollo:/mnt/sda1/boot/core7.0$ for X in *.txt ; do md5sum -c $X ; done
core.gz: OK
modules.gz: FAILED
md5sum: WARNING: 1 computed checksum did NOT match
modules64.gz: FAILED
md5sum: WARNING: 1 computed checksum did NOT match
rootfs.gz: OK

--- End code ---

Also, I've always wondered - why no md5 sums for vmlinuz and vmliunz64 ?

The Linux Mint thing makes me more conscious of these things than I used to be.

Juanito:
md5sums regenerated and added for vmlinuz{,64} - thanks

nick65go:
on welcome page, maybe a small corection?
for "v7.0 Core v7.0 updates the linux kernel version to 4.2.9
There are no major changes to the base, but Xorg-7.7 and alsa have been refactored/updated.
See System Announcement in the support forum for detailed change log and update notes. "

Thanks for your systematicaly improvments.

Juanito:
typo fixed - thanks
