can you all believe we are less than FOUR WEEKS away from release?

if you haven't been putting your heart and soul into testing, now is the time!

to that end, i posted up a script to the lubuntu-qa list recently to grab the iso, verify it against published values, burn a cd, and then verify it against the iso. there were a few errors in it which i have corrected.

i have also made the script more extensible so later when someone wants to make it work for every other derivative and architecture out there it should be easy breezy. i also put it on github so feel free to contribute to the development of this script for all us, especially if you're partial to some other architechture or derivative.

i would have added some of the obvious ones but the file structure and available archs are so different for each derivative, i figured it would be best for someone with specific experience to take the reigns.

so with no further ado:
https://github.com/wxl/scripts/blob/master/make-ubuntu-iso.sh

enjoy and keep on testing!

More options are always excellent! ∅ care to modify to push the image to a usb drive instead of cd? :-)
