ISO file will not pass SHA256 verification (solved)
I have D/L'd the 20.2 ISO file for Cinnamon from 2 different servers and when I run the SHA256 verification process they both give me the same SHA256 checksum which is different from the checksum text file downloaded from the mint website for this version of Mint. Any suggestions for this dummy???

This is the checksum from the website;

Is that what you have ?

I was making a silly beginner mistake. I had left out a couple of entries on the command line. I have been using windows too long and forgot how unforgiving cmd line entries are.LOL. Thanks for the reply. Also I thought I was getting 20.1 but in reality I have the file for 20.2.
