    I have lxle32.iso ready to burn, but what am I supposed to do with lxle32.iso.md5?  As you can see, I am new.  Thanks!

    @airjet the .md5 file contains an 'md5sum' checksum for the lxle32.iso file you downloaded.

    Using a terminal:
    ~$ cd <directory containing lxle32.iso>
    ~$ md5sum lxle32.iso

    <wait a while for the last command to finish and spit out its long number of digits result>
    ~$ cat lxle32.iso.md5
    <compare the 2 checksums for equality>

    That is for the overly cautious. Normal users just burn the damn iso and go.
