Hi Phil

The md5sum and the sha1sum matches[1]. The resulting .template file has 
188M, not as good as Fedora (11.1M), but better than 3.3G of the DVD.

You can notice that my md5sum is different from the DVD in web sites, I 
image that this is because I build the DVD from the CDs[2]. I don't know 
if this is a problem. My goal was just to test jigdo-file for now.

Regards

mg.
