How to check MD5/SHA1 of iso?

Question

How do I check the MD5 and SHA1 of an ISO file? It's a Windows 7 iso.

The settings likely have nothing to do with the errors. Parts of the ISO might get corrupted while it's been downloaded. You need to check the ISO itself to make sure the hashsum matches. — mikewhatever, Nov 05 '16 at 12:10

Using md5sum command, example:

md5sum MY_FILE.iso

And the same for SH1, with sha1sum command, example:

sha1sum MY_FILE.iso

I did that but how can I verify that that's the right md5/sh1? – Null_Error Nov 05 '16 at 12:55

Compare the hash that your machine calculated with the corresponding hash on the website where you downloaded the file from – Fcmam5 Nov 05 '16 at 12:58
