Hi Jonathan,

as there are various incarnations of lubuntu (i386, amd64, alt.....) each
comes with its own unique md5. That is what I allude to when I state that
the md5 varies. Maybe a note explaining that there are different build
flavours each with their own md5 needs doing? I put it simply as for a
person to check at the down load area for the md5 for which image they
downloaded?

Regards,

Phill.
