## Verifying ISO file's checksums
I've downloaded the latest stable version of standard (ie. without a desktop environment) live image, as well as `SHA256SUMS` and `SHA512SUMS` to verify if the cheksums of the ISO file are present in their respective lists:
Once you've downloaded a live ISO of your choice, make sure to download `SHA256SUMS` and `SHA512SUMS` files as well. That's because you can use them to verify if the SHA256 or SHA512 cheksum of the ISO file is present in its respecitve `SUMS` file.
Here's how I do it (replace `debian.iso` with the original file name of your ISO):
```sh
cat SHA256SUMS | grep "$(sha256sum debian.iso)"
cat SHA512SUMS | grep "$(sha512sum debian.iso)"
```
Here's a breakdown of these commands in case you're not familiar with the Linux command line:
In case you're not familiar with the Linux command line, I've got you covered with a breakdown:
1. The `cat` command accepts a path to a given file, and if it exists, outputs its content
2. The pipe symbol redirects the output of the command on the left-hand side to the input of the command on the right-hand side.
