After a 10 hour plus download of 13.1 64 bit with ktorrent (installed OS openSUSE 12.3) I find both sha1 and md5 checksums do not match!! Could not check the GPG signature as “unknown error” reported.
Should I resign myself to another long download??
Is the Metalink connection using downloadthemall any faster?

Did you hash check the downloaded iso inside the torrent client ?

If you have Linux, use aria2c with metalinks. Just run it on the same
directory as your bad file, and it will repair it. See
How do I
repair a corrupt installation dvd
rsync -avP rsync://server/path/image.iso
or
> aria2c --max-download-limit=40K --continue=true --check-integrity=true http://server/path/image.isoiso.meta4
Downloadthemall maybe can also used for repairing a download, but I have
not experimented with it.

Hi,
Before prceeding with burning to dvd
Why not verify the md5sums first:)

Not needed if you use aria2c with metalinks. The meta4 file includes the
checksums, and aria2c checks them. That’s the point.
You can do the checking just after to verify.
